Bobby Cannavale tribute to Lanford Wilson - Remembrances

Lanford Wilson Memorial, Lyceum Theatre, New York City May 17, 2011 - The people who have been part of of Lanford's life gathered to remember him. A host of stars, and playwrights, and artisttic directors came from all over the USA to remember a man who had been so important to their lives. The cast of Raindogs sang "Precious Moments of Our Lives" to begin the show, hosted by his dearest friend and long-time collaborator/director Marshall Mason. This is Bobby Cannavale's wonderful and funny personal story.
