How About an Around the World in 80 Days Soiree?

Mark Brown Writer

I was having coffee with my friend Sharone O’ Tannenbaum (Okay, I added the “O”) and we got to talking about how we are connected to a bunch of people who have been in Around the World in 80 Days. Sharone said, “Wouldn’t it be great if we could get together everyone who has done the show?” While I was pondering it she said, “Let’s do it. Let’s have a party on an anniversary year.” I said that next year marks the 15th year since it was first produced and she said, “There you go. Next year.”

As you can see, Sharone is a “can-do, make-it-happen” kind of woman.

Florida RepThat’s Sharone shooting. Don’t mess with her.

It’s a pretty cool idea. In my mind I see people from all over the world getting together but I know that’s not the reality. I mean, how cool would it be to get the casts of the productions in Turkey and South Africa to be there?

So I’m throwing it out there. Would people be interested in getting together for an Around the World in 80 Days shindig? I think it would be a lot of fun. Probably in NYC.

Let me throw this out to anyone who has done Around the World in 80 Days. What are your thoughts about a party?
