She won't be doing kicks nor tricks, but June Havoc will be entertaining NY audiences March 29 and 31 when she reads from her new memoir, Vignettes, at a benefit for the Abingdon Theatre Company. Havoc, whose childhood helped inspire the Broadway musical, Gypsy, will tell of her memories as vaudeville star, Baby June. A question and answer session will follow the readings.
Havoc's post-vaudeville roles include a stint as Miss Hannigan in Annie in 1982, and Mrs. Lovett in the Sweeney Todd national tour.
For tickets, $25, to Vignettes at the Theatre Row Theatre, 424 West 42nd St., call (212) 736-6604.
