shake hands with the president
and have my picture taken with

Seller reports that the audi-

/A When Jerry Lewis was in
town to star in Damn
Yankees at the Fisher, he
escorted his daughter to a
different kind of play.
After a trip to the Somerset
Collection with her mom, the 5-
year-old asked dad to take her
for a return visit. While he found
the mall a little confusing with
the different levels
and -twists and turns,
he reported his Jerry Lewis:
daughter was able to Toy story?
lead him straight to
her favorite place — F.A.O.
Schwarz.
What did she get? According
to dad, whatever she wanted.

Deena and Steven
Borzak are getting ready
for some "Happy Days" of
entertaining.
Tom Bosley, who is playing
Cap'n Andy in Show Boat at the
Masonic Temple Theatre through
May 24 and who was Mr. Cun-
ningham in the TV series "Hap-
py Days," is related to the
Borzaks and will be their guest
at some home-cooked dinners.
Bosley is the first cousin of
Steven Borzak's father, and the
cousins were close when they
were both living in Chicago. Since
moving away from their home-
town, they continue seeing each
other at family parties.
Especially excited about spend-

daughters: liana, 9; Shira, 7; and

That's Nancy Gurwin's take
on the popular musical she's
bringing to the Maple-Drake Jew-
ish Community Center.
Skateboards, baseball caps,
sunglasses — the signs of the '90s
- - give signature to this version
performed by an adult cast and
children's chorus.
"This is mainstream theater
with our own 'cool' look," Gurwin
says about the play, which stars
Jamie Richards as Joseph,
Tani Mough as the Narrator,
Marc Bronsweig as Pharoah
and Gary Lee Temple as Jacob.
The curtain goes up at 8 p.m.
Saturdays and 2 p.m. Sundays
April 5-20. For tickets, call (810)
