Jane Powell and Pink Martini Tonight

Our plan for New Year's Eve tonight is to be in the second row for Pink Martini. This time, I am not going to have two martinis at the Schnitz. They nearly killed me last go round when they had their premier of Hang on Little Tomato. Thank God for the trolley....


One of my favorite movies is Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. We will see its star and Portland's own tonight! Jane Powell is 76 years old. I'll get a good look at her. I bet she looks just the same as in the movies.

Portland, Oregon

Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall

New Years Eve with Pink Martini with Norman Leyden, the Harvey Rosencrantz Orchestra, the Royal Blues of Grant High School plus very special guest: Portland-
