Yes, girls, and Theater Queens, it is that time of year again!
Today, Shelley Plimpton turns 74, which is hard to believe, and on behalf of all my readers and myself, Shelley, we wish you the best.
Many may know her only as a footnote; the mom of actress Martha Plimpton. But to those really in the know, she is much more.
She was an Original Cast member, both Off-Broadway and on, of the musical, "HAIR." She introduced what some of you on here--especially my real-life friend, Angela--know is my favorite song from that show, "Frank Mills." The golden innocence in Shelley's voice has no other peer. Allison Case comes closest, but rest assured, for all time, Shelley owns this song.
So, best wishes on this day, Shelley, and many more! Have a blast, doing exactly what you like!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now, listen, darlings, as Shelley shows how it should be done!
God bless her. An icon.
