A wonderful evening was shared by all at the Drama Book Shop on November 6, celebrating and promoting photographer and theatrical impresario Betti Franceschi and the remarkable dancers featured in her book.
The event will be released as a podcast on the Drama Book Shop website on November 19, so be sure to look for it then.
The panel featured an extraordinary group of artists: Lance Westergard, Eivind Harum, Diana Byer, Sondra Lee (at 97!), Joanna Rush, and Teddy Kern—all friends of or members of Dancers Over 40.
In attendance were DO40 board members Sharon Wendrow, Leni Anders, Sasha Spielvogel, Ken Bloom, and Patrick Thomas McCarthy, along with a special appearance by showgirl, Latin Quarter performer, and DO40 member Darlene Larson.
A heartfelt thank you to Betti Franceschi for bringing so many dancers together for an unforgettable evening. The book is truly wonderful and can be ordered through the DO40 Book Shop or online.
