Darlings, This Is The Most Iconic Day Of Musical Theater Week! Two Musical Theater Legends Share A Birthday Today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                             Most readers on here need no introduction to who this is.  Today is the birthday of  The Greatest Showstopper In Broadway History.  That is right, girls!  I am talking about Donna McKechnie, who today is somewhere between 81 and 85.   No matter the age, having seen her as Cassie in the original company of "A Chorus Line" in 1975, Donna will always be Dance Exemplar in my mind.

                              She could do "The Music And The Mirror" full out, tonight, if called upon to do it.  As a performer, Donna is indefatigable.  All of us on here wish Donna a happy birthday, celebrate as you please, and know that you are the admiration of all on here.

                                    Now, today also happens to be the birthday of Martha Plimpton.  She is, of course the daughter of Shelley Plimpton, who introduced my favorite song, "Frank Mills" in the original Broadway company of "HAIR," and Keith Carradine, who did a run in that show.  Martha is 55 and looks much younger.  How I wish I could have flown to London to see her and the rest of the cast in Sondheim's "Here We Are."  And her heartbreaking performance in "Mass" was unforgettable.  She is adept at drama, musical theater, and anything she puts her efforts to.

                                     Happy Birthday, Martha, and celebrate in style.    All on here wish you the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                                        Keep on going, girl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
