TV MAGIC IN BLACK AND WHITE
Dazzling clips from early TV (and the Hayeses were there!). A sentimental journey featuring—among others: Milton Berle, Olsen and Johnson, Durante, Sinatra, Merman, Kovacs, Elvis, Senor Wences, Belafonte, Benny, Gleason, Carol Burnett, Como, Dorothy Collins, Edgar Bergen, Steve Allen, Don Knotts, Gordon MacRae, Ezio Pinza, Mary Martin, Dean Martin, Nat “King” Cole, and even Lucille Ball trying to sell Vitameatavegamin!
MEMORIES OF “YOUR SHOW OF SHOWS”
Personalized recollections of the milestone variety show, including sketches with arguably the greatest comedy team of the 20th century: Sid Caesar, Imogene Coca, Carl Reiner and Howard Morris. Plus music by regulars Robert Merrill, Marguerite Piazza, Judy Johnson and Bill Hayes. Movie parodies, a hilarious pantomime, and a wide range of guest stars such as Rex Harrison, Eva Gabor, Sir Cedric Hardwicke, Faye Emerson, and Kukla and Ollie!
A DATE WITH THE MARX BROTHERS
A hilarious compilation of highlights from their films. Chico shoots the piano, Harpo serenades with his harp, Groucho dances and sings “Lydia, the Tattooed Lady.” See an eleven-minute cutting of their masterpiece Duck Soup, so scathingly satirical Mussolini banned it in Italy. See also priceless moments with foil Margaret Dumont, actor Louis Calhern, inveterate sketch comedian Sig Rumann and opera favorites Kitty Carlisle and Allan Jones.
SEX AND SUFFERING IN THE AFTERNOON
The crazy world of soap opera drama revealed by veteran stars with 40 years of experience. Chuckles and tears. Includes: Many weddings from Days of our Lives, Julie gets burned, The Young and the Restless, the Cat-Scanner Review, Sunset Beach, “You Must Have Been a Beautiful Baby,” funny and happy times, and a clip from the Emmy Awards Show. These observations and tapes are so well done you don’t have to be a soap-devotee to enjoy them.
Note: Each lecture/presentation is approximately 45 minutes in length.
