Long Beach Playhouse's 5th Annual Celebrity Radio Show Set for Today

Tonight, June 17 at 5:30 P.M., For the fifth year, politicians, community leaders and actors will gather at the offices of Keesal, Young and Logan to tell stories about Long Beach politics, culture and newsmakers. Tongues firmly in cheek, our Political Players promise to reveal the real truth about all that is happening in town.

Gazette Executive Editor, Harry Saltzgaver writes a hilarious script, complete with sound effects, witty banter and bad puns. It's performed by the Long Beach Political Players, who this year are: Gov. George Deukmejian, Doug Haubert, Gigi Fusco Meese, Stacy Mungo, Michelle Molina, Doug Otto, Gloria Cordero, Victoria Bryan, John Morris, Al Austin, Lisa Ramelow, Rod Wilson and Mitchell Nunn. Sound effects "art-fully" delivered by Foley Artist extraordinaire, Art Levine. Harry's script will be rousing and provocative and the ad libs fast and furious. Anything can happen!

In addition to the Radio Show, the acclaimed Keesal, Young and Logan chef offers a bounty of appetizers to satisfy even the pickiest foodie. On your way to the buffet is KYL's hosted bar and bartender.

The Radio Show is a fundraiser for the Playhouse and a truly unique event. Tickets are $85, a modest price for the chance to hang out with the city's movers and shakers, eat great food and have a drink on the house. And it takes place in a room with a breathtaking view of the harbor.
