La Traviata - Guilds of Segerstrom Center for the Arts<br />
by Lorraine Garafalo<br />
Betty Lou Evans, Jo Andrews, Mary Busche.<br />
Jane Griley, Kristen Thompson, Mary Thompson.<br />
Thirty members and friends of La<br />
Traviata attended the Afternoon Theater<br />
Party – organized by Mary Busche - to<br />
see “My Fair Lady” at the Rose Center<br />
Theater. This was a sparkling production<br />
of Lerner and Lowes classic musical.<br />
Afterward, the group went to have drinks<br />
Board members of the Flying<br />
Dutchman Chapter of the Segerstrom<br />
Center for the Arts were treated to a<br />
luncheon by Chairman Bobbitt Williams<br />
at a country club in Newport Beach in<br />
late August to plan events for the coming<br />
year. Those attending were Bobbitt<br />
Williams, chairman, Carol Kirkwood,<br />
membership; Mike Nielsen, Ways and<br />
Means; Jan Goss, Recording Secretary;<br />
Gayle Wayne, hospitality; Charlene<br />
Bauer, parliamentarian; and Frieda<br />
Koester, publicity.<br />
The group planned five meetings for<br />
the year and enthusiastically supported<br />
themes and entertainment for the<br />
events. Details were outlined for the<br />
September 29th fund raiser which was<br />
held at the lovely home of Marlene and<br />
Chris Neilsen. A program of Broadway<br />
Musicals was performed by students from<br />
the Orange County School of Arts. It was<br />
a perfect evening that provided delicious<br />
food, exchanges of chat about summer<br />
activities, and a big welcome to many<br />
guests.<br />

La Traviata was one of the early<br />
chapters of the Guilds – created in<br />
1978 – eight years before the opening<br />
of Segerstrom Hall, as a cohesive,<br />
countywide volunteer support group<br />
11<br />
to promote the vision of a world class<br />
performing arts center in Orange County.<br />
La Traviata members are proud of their<br />
role in helping to accomplish this vision.<br />
Today – we support local theater as well<br />
as performances at Segerstrom Center for<br />
the Arts.<br />
