DO40 Hits the High Notes at Karaoke Night

Dancers Over 40 members and friends gathered at RPM Underground for a lively evening of songs, food, raffles, and even a little science.

The event was a wonderful success, with members taking the microphone to celebrate beloved Broadway favorites. While only one performer from George M! was on hand, attendees also sang selections from 42nd Street, Carnival, and Dear World. A special highlight of the evening was 90-year-old Jane Coleman, who delighted the crowd by singing from Dear World, the Angela Lansbury musical in which she appeared.

The evening was made even more memorable thanks to RPM Underground's extensive theater songbook, delicious food, and the enthusiasm of everyone who participated.

We were also pleased to welcome representatives from Columbia Research Unit, who supported DO40 while sharing information about their Pfizer vaccine study for adults age 65 and older, as well as upcoming C. diff clinical trials.

Among those in attendance were Patrick McCarthy, Leni Anders, Sasha Spielvogel, Carole Banninger, James Dybas, Jane Coleman, Sharon Wendrow, Ken Bloom, and Lawrence Leritz, along with Columbia Research Unit staff members Jorge Benitez, Magda Sobieszczyk, and Hong Van Tieu.

Special thanks to everyone who joined us and helped make the evening such a success.
