Academy Award winner Christopher Walken and his wife casting director (Sopranos, Entourage) Georgianne Walken made a rare appearance on the town attending a preview of Kenyetta Lethridge's Innocent Flesh at the Actors Temple Theatre. The usually camera shy Walken was so impressed by the four young actresses who play teenage hookers in the searing drama posed happily with the cast members as they whipped out their cell-phones. They also congratulated writer / director Kenyetta Lethridge and producers Michael Mann & Diana Zollicoffer on the production.
Also attending the performance were the three granddaughters of Hollywood legend, John Wayne. Sisters actress Laura Bottini, Cati Graber and Molly Rigdon flew in from Los Angeles especially for the show. Following the impromptu photo op, the Walkens joined producer Michael Mann for dinner at theatrical watering hole OrsO. Mann & Walken were classmates at the famed Professional Children's School along with the show's general manager Eddie Gaynes.
