TOD - My 25th birthday in 1975. Worked all day, then went to the first rehearsal for YOU'RE A GOOD MAN, CHARLIE BROWN, with DR Elmore as director. After the introductions and all the formalities, he said, "Now, I want Ginny Ellis to come up here and sit by me." It thought I was in real trouble, or being relieved of my Lucy role, when Snooky and Andrea emerged with a blazing cake and the the whole company was singing "Happy Birthday." They presented me with this Snoopy, autographed by everyone. I'd lived in Middletown a little over 2 years and it was the first time I felt a sense of belonging with real friends.
