One of the bad things about writing the multiple blogs and press releases, etc. is that I don’t ALWAYS get a chance to completely digest the multiple requests that I get to review a new project or program that is presented to me whether I get it in email or “snail” mail or whatever the case is.
Recently, I was asked to take a look at a play that was coming to San Diego and perhaps do my part to promote it if possible. I made my normal post on Social Medias,etc. but, did not take it any farther until this morning when I had a follow up email about this performance that will take place in San Diego in July.
I stopped what I was doing and took the time to do a little “on-line” research and was pleasantly surprised NO- actually blown away at what I found.
First I visited the website here:

I couldnt believe my ears. Its like he has returned to life. Then I went to You Tube (of course)
And now I see what all of the hubub was about. Mr. Felders ability to draw you into the event, make you a part of it and then allow you to see George through his eyes is an incredible feat. I have read all of the review now and his wikipedia information.
This program is a must see. And here’s how. The Old Globe was kind enough to offer the following to the people that I was able to attract for them. I hope you will take advantage of it. It is sure to be an unforgettable evening.

We are thrilled to bring back the show that introduced San Diego audiences to one of the most unique and entertaining performers to ever grace the Old Globe stage. Hershey Felder as George Gershwin Alone played to sold out houses and standing ovations during its previous appearances at The Old Globe. Now, to celebrate Hershey’s return with his newest triumph, George Gershwin Alone will be performed for a 13-performance limited engagement. The show incorporates Gershwin’s best-known songs, from “The Man I Love” and “Someone to Watch Over Me,” through passages and songs from An American in Paris and Porgy and Bess, to a complete performance of “Rhapsody in Blue.”
