Who saw Broadway's long running comedy "Gemini?" Danny Aiello, Jessica James, Jonathan Hadary, Anne DeSalvo and Carol Potter were in the original cast. Kathleen Turner and Wayne Knight were in the play as well during its very long run!

Did you guys know that there was a (bad) movie made from the play?
Gemini

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

While I enjoyed the performances in this work when I saw it on Broadway, I never though that it was brilliant piece of writing but it was an enjoyable evening in the theatre.

The revival a few years ago with Linda Hart was also very funny.

Wasn't Albert Innuarto the original book writer for THE RINK?

Terrence McNally wrote The Rink. The movie was called "Happy Birthday Gemini" and starred Madeline Kahn. Jessica James used to come to my childhood birthday parties.

'Take me out tonight where's there's music and there's people and they're young and alive.'

I know that McNally ultimately wrote the book to THE RINK, but I'm almost certain that Innurato was the origianl author, why he was replace.. don't know. Anyone?

Do you remember the commercial when Gemini became the longest running comedy and all the actors were running to the theater? Jessica James was on rollerskates!
