masterful storyteller's trip through show biz history
Door 7:30pm, Music 8:00pm | Purchase advance tickets: $15.50

The son of the Academy Award-winning actress, Eileen Heckart and a theatrical producer in his own right, Luke Yankee has spent his life amidst the dazzling milieu of Hollywood stars. Tonight, this masterful storyteller who's seen it all takes the Freight on a live multimedia trip through behind-the-silver-screen history, paying loving tribute to the golden years of showbiz with warm, hilarious and touching stories of divas like Marlene Dietrich, Tallulah Bankhead, and Joan Crawford, spiced up with rare photographs and video clips. Find out why Eileen Heckart had 37 takes with Marilyn Monroe in a scene from Bus Stop where Marilyn had only three lines! Discover the well-kept secret to Sophia Loren's exotic-looking eyes! All this and much more will be dished up for your dining pleasure tonight, complements of our maitre d' for the evening, Luke Yankee.
