THESE SHOWS WILL BE TAPED FOR THE UPCOMING RELEASE OF BEA’S SHOWS ON DVD! AND PROBABLY THE DVD WILL BE RELEASED IN 2006!
The Director will be Terry Hughes.
El Portal Theatre MainStage
5269 Lankershim Boulevard
North Hollywood, California 91610.
“Bea Arthur and Billy Goldenberg return to the El Portal with their Tony nominated show. Bea Arthur recounts her celebrated career with song and good humor”.
“Book the seats early, this show is sure to sell out”.
For whatever reasons, the April 22nd show at the University of Pittsburgh has been canceled and replaced with Carol Channing instead. What really doesn’t makes sense is what the BCPAC president, Jim Guelfi said, “Bea Arthur has canceled her 2006 tour, including her spring date in Bradford… I feel bad that Ms. Arthur needed to cancel her tour for health reasons” Meanwhile, she has added dates in January, so it’s confusing that he says that Bea has cancelled her 2006 tour in general, when there are still shows going on. All we can do is wait and see about all of this, but at this point things are obviously unclear. So, as usual, keep checking back here as I will be posting updates as soon as I hear of them!
I’ve been working hard on enhancing your Bea experience!

First up, an awesome video from Alan, who met Bea, Rue and Betty at last months Border’s signing in NYC! Thank god for video cell phones! And thank you Alan for sharing this with us!
Last night, Bea’s wish of appearing on an episode of one of her favorite shows, Curb Your Enthusiasm, came true! In a cameo spot, Bea portraid Larry’s dead mother. A short but sweet sequence that Bea keeps true to her form! A must see! If you missed it, it will be replayed a few more times on HBO and HBO2, so check your listings! It will also be on the DVD release of the 5th season of Curb Your Enthusiasm sometime next year.
In other news, the May 6th, 2006 show in Springfield has been cancelled and replaced by Debbie Reynolds. As usual, no reason was provided for the cancellation.
If you are in NYC, it looks like Peter Mac and John Schaefer are back with their show ‘Jingle Away With Judy and Bea’. Visit their web site for more information! www.judyandme.com
More exciting things to come! Keep coming back for more!!
