7 Days in the Arts
7 days in the Arts, around Los Angeles.
Before Robbie Baitz was Jon Robin Baitz, the playwright, he was, in his words, \”a smart-ass little spoiled Beverly Hills snot\” who worked as a gofer for a couple of Hollywood con artists. Rather than sensibly going East to college, he had elected to remain in Los Angeles to glean some life experience, and so had fallen in with \”a den of thieves,\” he says.
Something has happened to \”Cabaret\” on its way to the Wilshire Theatre in Los Angeles.
\”The Last Night of Ballyhoo\” arrived at the Cañon Theatre in Beverly Hills last month with impeccable credentials.
