Thank Heaven: A Memoir by Leslie Caron

Leslie Caron is one of the few leading ladies of the MGM musical heyday that has remained active into the 21st Century.  In 2000, she starred in the memorable Chocolate with Johnny Depp and Juliet Binoche, and then in 2003 Le Divorce with Kate Hudson.  However, I think she will be best remembered by us Moonies for her involvement in "I Remember It Well: The Songs of Alan Jay Lerner."  This beautiful tribute to Lerner was held in the Herbst Theater on June 30, 2003 as 42nd Street Moon's Gala.

I was looking in the paper today and saw that Caron has a new memoir, Thank Heaven.  While I haven't read it yet, it has officially gone on my reading list.  If you want to learn more about the life and work of Leslie Caron you can purchase Thank Heaven at Amazon.com.  It would also make a great holiday gift.

Speaking of great gift ideas!

42nd Street Moon has some wonderful stocking stuffers available for anyone that loves musical theatre.

For the Jerome Kern fan, we have The First Rose of Summer, a collection of Kern's lost gems.  Included are many songs that were recorded for the first time for this CD!

Of course, if Cole Porter is more your style, how about the first full cast recording of Something For the Boys.  This 42nd Street Moon revival cast of the 1943 hit Porter show includes Cabaret sensation Meg Mackay and Moon favorite Leslie Hamilton.
