AFTERLOVE: LOVE LIFE IN THE AFTERLIFE, written by and performed by Ron Hanks and Betsy Reisz is one of the most brilliant and inventive shows I have seen at this year's Hollywood Fringe Festival. In the dating pool of the afterlife, there are a LOT of choices, and this show presents 8 couples of public figures across time and space as they attempt to create new and continued love with each other in Heaven.

A man of his word, he has presented over 600 shows since closing his doors at his original venue at Vitello's and opening at The Federal in 2012.

In her new book, 'Life, Love, Lies & Lessons: A Journey through Truth to Find an Authentic Life' (published by Balboa Press), Pope relates how she changed her life to find happiness and invites readers to do the same.

The play examines the nature of honesty, and its use of a play within a play is one of many levels on which the author teases the audience with the difference between semblance and reality, both in love and on the stage. Couples change partners easily and partners confront each other when the evidence points to acts of indiscretion. And it seems the women are the worst offenders.

Bowie, MD -- Many readers enjoy a good love story. They root for a happy ending as the author pulls on their heartstrings and stirs their emotions.

Pop star Ke$ha stopped by last night's CONAN on TBS and revealed that she hates bro rocker guys, and would much rather have sexy times with a quiet nerd.

Given the insular and in-clubby world that is the New York cabaret scene (by nature, not by design), it can be a struggle for non-celebrity, out-of-town performers to generate an audience when they mount shows in Manhattan. One singer facing that dilemma is lovely, Boston-based Lynda D'Amour, a terrific talent who is popular in the Beantown area but hasn't built enough of a following in the Apple to pack a room.
