Whether fans are reliving memories through the songs they’ve loved for years, or are experiencing Barbra & Frank for the first time, this “must see” show captures the imagination and brings to life the spirit of two of the most beloved legends ever to grace a stage.
Join author Phyllis Palm to discuss her new book, The Key, the Turtle and the Bottle of Schnapps. Phyllis says, “Come along on an adventure. The journey is frightening and often sad. A 4,000-mile flight from evil aggressors will lead the reader from Frankfurt, Germany in 1938 to Tashkent, Uzbekistan in 1945. Ultimately, the family emerges triumphant, highlighting the resilience and the strength of ordinary people to overcome unimaginable challenges.”
