On January 8th I wrote with gusto about the new Carol Channing documentary, Larger Than Life.
In that post I wrote, "This documentary seems like a wonderful fit for Baltimore's Charles Theatre (I'm thinking of John Waters as a speaker). Let's hope Baltimore books this gem."
Carol Channing Larger Than Life - Poster
Well, ask and you shall receive. Carol Channing, Larger Than Life is coming to our very own Charles Theatre on Sunday, February 5th.
Here are the details from Jonathan Palevsky:
Sunday February 5, 2012
Cinema Sundays At The Charles is pleased to present the Baltimore Premier of Carol Channing: Larger Than Life. Directed by Dori Berinstein. Written by Dori Berinstein and Adam Zucker. Starring Carol Channing, Loni Anderson, Marge Champion, Harry Kullijian, Mary Jo Catlett, Tyne Daly.
2012 USA. Running time 83 minutes.
Synopsis
The story of legendary performer Carol Channing's life is as colorful as the lipstick on her big, bright smile. In Carol Channing: Larger Than Life, director Dori Berinstein, with co-writer Adam Zucker, captures the magic and vivacity of the 90-year-old icon - both onstage and off...past and present. The film is both an intimate love story and a rarefied journey inside Broadway's most glamorous era. It is, above all, a look at an inspiring, incomparable and always entertaining American legend.

OK, Superbowl Sunday didn’t quite go the way we wanted but at least we can laugh at something on Sunday. Come and celebrate the career of one of America’s show business icons.
So far our speaker is TBA…I am having a pretty tough time finding someone on Superbowl Sunday! All suggestions welcome!
Looking forward to seeing you on 2/5.
All the best,
Jonathan Palevsky
