I don’t know if you heard, but Family Ties is getting the stage musical treatment this Summer according to Broadway.com. The production will make its debut this June in Ohio, Dayton not Columbus like the ’80s sitcom, but having it in the same state is still pretty groovy.
Talking about groovy, what can make it even groovier? How about Eve Plumb, best known for playing Jan Brady on The Brady Bunch, is playing the matriarch Elyse Keaton. The role that was originated by Meredith Baxter. Proving everything in Hollywood is related, I think!
I wonder how Marcia, Marcia, Marcia feels about this, I am sure she is just as excited as we are.
On November 24th, Florence Henderson passed away and just over a month later four of her TV children got together to remember her. Maureen McCormick aka Marcia, Marcia, Marcia, Christopher Knight aka Peter, Mike Lookinland aka Bobby and Susan Olsen aka Cindy were reunited with her real family to honor the woman they loved as a mom. By the smiles on their faces, you can tell they remember as fondly as we do which a great thing of you consider The Brady Buch debuted almost 50 years ago.
When it comes to why Eve Plumb and Barry were Williams were not there, we will just assume they were both busy!
