A Chorus Line' Composer Marvin Hamlisch Dead at 68

Another big loss in the theatre world this morning:

Marvin Hamlisch, who achieved theatre immortality as the composer of the iconic musical A Chorus Line, died Aug. 7 following a brief illness. He was 68.

Mr. Hamlisch's other theatre works included They're Playing Our Song, Jean Seberg, Smile, The Goodbye Girl and Sweet Smell of Success. His latest musical, The Nutty Professor, recently opened in Tennessee. But it was with the groundbreaking A Chorus Line, which told of the frustrations and worries of a group of anonymous dancers trying out for a Broadway musical, that he made his mark as a theatre figure....

..Mr. Hamlisch is one of only 11 people to have won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony award. On top of this, he also won the Pulitzer Prize for A Chorus Line.

I have a copy of that pic in a frame, give to me as a gift by Paula, Jackie's daughter-in-law.  I met her at the memorial for Jackie.

Thanks for letting us know nataliemarie.

I don't know where to post this so I am just going to post it here.  Cameron816 died in late July from complications of Hodgkin's Lymphoma.  He was a courageous man and I wanted everyone on the cullen website to know of his passing.  He cherished Brokeback Mountain and emersed himself in the story.  Please, everyone on this site, say a prayer for Nathan (that was his name ... he just thought Cameron was a cool name that he would like to have had).  Thank you for listening.

I did not know you Nathan, but will always miss a member of the Brokie family. RIP Nathan.

John posted this in a different thread when the above post was posted there. I am moving it here.

Quote from: Cameron816 on June 15, 2007, 01:00:40 PM

========================

Death is nothing at all
I have only slipped away into the next room
I am I and you are you
Whatever we were to each other
That we are still
Call me by my old familiar name
Speak to me in the easy way you always used
Put no difference into your tone
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow
Laugh as we always laughed
At the little jokes we always enjoyed together
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me
Let my name be ever the household word that it always was
Let it be spoken without effort
Without the trace of a shadow in it
Life means all that it ever meant
It is the same as it ever was
There is absolute unbroken continuity
Why should I be out of mind
Because I am out of sight?
I am waiting for you for an interval
Somewhere very near
Just around the corner
All is well.
========================

Someone sent me these words when my father died.  I had never heard them before, but somehow they rang so true to my inner emotions.  It help me to find a place to put my father's spirit.  Now in my Brokeback years, I like to think of Jack's spirit reaching out to us with these words as well.
