A Princely Music of the Night

June 21, 2007 - Michael Elkin, Arts & Entertainment Editor


It's Liza with a -- zest! That was obvious at the Prince Music Theater's 2007 gala, where Liza Minnelli brought her vivacious "vagabond shoes" to Philadelphia for a concert that even would have had Elsie leaving her room to give a listen. From left, gala co-chairs Howard Lee Morgan, chairman of the Prince board, and his wife, Eleanor, find the event music to their ears, as do Constance and Joseph Smukler (she's on the board); Kenneth J. Adelberg, also a Prince board member, and his wife, Edna.

Liza Minnelli and concert colleagues Johnny Rodgers (left) and Cortes Alexander made the music marvelous at the Prince Music Theater 2007 gala.

Ron Kaiserman ( left), founding prexy of the Prince, celebrates the music of the night along with Ron Naples and Virginia M. Kricun, veepee of the theater's board of directors.

New York, New York? Not this night, when it's Philly, Philly, where Harold and Lynne Honickman meet up with Claire and Robert Reichlin.

Come to the cabaret -- at the Prince! Enjoying the evening's tough-ticket (from left) are Robert Brind and Ira Brind, and Karen Lotman, a member of the music theater's board.
