Review: PALM SPRINGS GETAWAY at Palm Canyon Theatre
What did our critic think of PALM SPRINGS GETAWAY at Palm Canyon Theatre?

HATTIE'S BIG NIGHT Returns to Midtown Art Center
After the success of Vincent Victoria Presents' latest original play 'Hattie's Big Night' in February, the company decided to bring the show back for four additional encore performances this Mother's Day Weekend. It seems appropriate, as the show's central character Hattie Mc Daniel was the unofficial 'Mother of Black Hollywood' during her over twenty year career in Hollywood. Known for her kindness and generosity towards other performers, Mc Daniel was a fixture in the film community during the 1930's and 40's.
