It's something I don't think too many mothers and daughters have had â€â€? the joy and the bonding that we had And Carrie was a very good writer "Around one in the morning, I heard some papers coming under the door and I got up, and, sure enough, there were six pages of rewrites " Out of his order came a clearer picture of Room 102, a volatile 12-foot-by-16-foot environment where Nanny, a domineering hypochondriac, would protect young Helen from Louise, an angry, alcoholic woman battered by broken dreams Neat and tidy And that was the beginning of what Carol faced bravely and courageously, and then the rewriting went on that way "The show was being cast I finally called her and said, `Let's have a little dinner,' and I told her the next scene wasn't going to work as is After reading the play, he suggested himself It's more sprawling than it should be for a good play, but I think it can be a very good play because you both know how to write There is always more coming '" Prince had said yes, but he warned them there was work still to be done This family drama, based on Burnett's 1986 autobiography, has found its way to Broadway after stops at Sundance's theater lab in Utah and Chicago's Goodman Theatre That's where she would go to write " Asked if the audience would hear her daughter's voice in "Hollywood Arms," Burnett said simply, "You will hear us "It was six difficult months, but work was being done," the director said "I wasn't fishing at all," Burnett said with a laugh I've got it month to month "Carrie had a little cabin that she loved in Colorado ' And then I went up to my hotel room and went to bed For Burnett, the trip has been a heartfelt journey However, most of the attention has been focused on its co-authors â€â€? Burnett, one of television's most beloved comedians, telling her own story, and Hamilton, who died of lung cancer at 38 last January, before "Hollywood Arms" went into rehearsal in Chicago We did all that together " "I feel so blessed," Burnett said " That has meant Burnett going it alone as author, working with veteran director Harold Prince and the cast, as the play made its way to New York "As they were redoing it, I went there to take pictures of the room because Hal wanted to see it," she added "A young man has bought the building and is now restoring it, hoping to get it back to its original grandeur, which was in the '20s, long before we ever got there," she said " Getting there, though, has been rough "I had read Carol's memoirs and found them quite moving â€â€? a lovely family story set against difficult odds," the director said It's been bittersweet " After invaluable rewriting one summer at the Sundance Theater Lab and a couple of readings, Burnett sought the advice of Prince, an old friend and director of such musical hits as "Cabaret," "Evita" and "The Phantom of the Opera Her face dropped They are in the show "So we faxed back and forth '" Prince drew his writers a sketch â€â€? "the roughest, most embarrassing design of a one-room set that you ever saw," he says â€â€? and told them: "You must confine every single thing in this play to that one set "And then the next thing that faced us was â€â€? and I think Carol and I just didn't deal with it until it happened â€â€? what would happen when a rewrite was necessary," Prince said And I said, `OK, it's going to take as long as it's going to take,' thinking to myself, `I hope it doesn't take three days because this isn't the end of it Hamilton became sick in August 2001 and by November, things were worse Burnett still has ties to the place â€â€? she currently rents the room "I explained what I thought the next scene should be and she said, `It's going to take three days "I wouldn't be here if it weren't for my background and what I've gone through recently " Prince concurred I figure I am going to let it go after we open "I just wanted his advice "She had reread and reread and reread the memoir, and told me, `Mom, just for us, let's make this a play,'" Burnett recalled during an interview in a hotel near Central Park And fortunately, when Carrie was in the hospital, she still saw tapes of all the actors who are in the show " Their game plan? Mother and daughter first decided on a scene-by-scene outline for the play, and then, who would write what I think you should know that That's how it worked The production stars Linda Lavin as Nanny, Michele Pawk as Mama and Sara Niemietz and Donna Lynne Champlin as the younger and older Helen "I could never tell who wrote what in this play The performer spoke softly, quietly as she talked about her daughter "That was the most dramatic day â€â€? four days into rehearsal in Chicago "I brought in a little couch and a desk and went there with my laptop to see what would happen " By the time "Hollywood Arms" went into rehearsal for its Chicago engagement, Hamilton had died "She'd write separately and I'd write separately," Burnett explained ' She looked completely poleaxed by the idea of writing it alone " The crowded, tiny space is where "Hollywood Arms," a memory play by Carrie Hamilton and her mother, Carol Burnett, spins its tale of three generations of women: irascible grandmother; quarrelsome, unhappy mother; and young star-struck Helen, a stand-in for Burnett He called back and said, `I'm the one to do it "After I read the play, I told them, `You've got a lot of characters and you've got a lot of settings " She was looking at a list of young directors and wanted Prince's recommendations She is still mourning the oldest of her three children and yet celebrating her daughter as the person who knew, more than three years ago, that Burnett's book must be done on stage She passed on absolutely everything 'Hollywood Arms' Comes to Broadway Oct 30, 1:00 PM EST NEW YORK (AP) â€â€? It takes place in Room 102 in a shabby three-story building on the corner of Yucca and Wilcox, a block north of Hollywood Boulevard, where once, according to its most famous resident, "there were about a hundred thousand movie houses 17 The sale, to be held in Geneva, Switzerland, in November, will include 11 pieces given to the opera diva by her husband, wealthy Italian industrialist Giovanni Battista Meneghini, in the 1950s Callas and Meneghini married in 1949, but she eventually left him for Greek shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis, with whom she had a stormy relationship until he wed Jacqueline Kennedy in 1968 ) A ruby and diamond Van Cleef & Arpels brooch was estimated at 28,000 pounds to 45,000 pounds (US$50,000 to US$80,000) and Sotheby's predicted a ruby and diamond necklace would bring in between 52,000 pounds and 78,000 pounds (US$90,000 and US$140,000) Maria Callas Jewels to Be Sold at Auction Aug 5, 2:51 PM EST Jewelry that once belonged to the famed soprano Maria Callas will be sold at auction, Sotheby's said Thursday Callas left the jewels to a friend when she died in 1977 Also on the block will be a chunky, claw-set emerald-and-diamond ring estimated between 45,000 pounds and 78,000 pounds (US$80,000 and US$140,000 The sale is to be held in Geneva's Hotel Beau-Rivage on Nov The most expensive of the jewels is an 11 7 carat marquise-shaped diamond ring that Sotheby's expects to sell for between 68,000 pounds and 100,000 pounds (US$120,000 to US$180,000) |
