And Happy Birthday, Too, To Martha Plimpton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


                          Martha Pimpton may never have done :"HAIR," or sang "Frank Mills," but that her mother, Shelley Plimpton, did both--originating it, in fact!!!!!!!--forever links her to that show!  But Martha, as we have known for years, is  more than just a "HAIR" baby!!!!!!!!!!!!

                            She was a fabulous parody of a White Trash mom on "Raising Hope."  She did a spirited Helena at the Delacorte, in "A Midsummer Night's Dream;" the last time I saw her on stage.  Currently, she is playing the daughter in the ongoing revival of Edward Albee's "A Delicate Balance," and, while I haven't seen it yet, the word on the street is she is fantastic!

                            She stopped the show, with "Zip!" in the last revival of "Pal Joey!"

                            There is just no limit to what Martha can do!

                            Today, Martha turns 44, and the girls and I wish her a Happy Birthday!

                             Rock on, Martha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
