Members amybrickwallace Posted October 10, 2021 Members Share Posted October 10, 2021 (edited) Here's a 1971 photo of Mary Stuart and Larry Haines with LOL's Audrey Peters and Ron Tomme. I'm guessing that they were celebrating the 20th anniversary of both shows (which debuted September 1951).

Members Franko Posted October 10, 2021 Members Share Posted October 10, 2021 Great photo, abw! I can see why Audrey went on to play Kim Zimmer's mother. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

victoria foxton Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 (edited) @Soapsuds Just started watching. Alan's talking really fast. Tripping over his words. As he introduces Maree and Lisa.

Members Nicholas Blair Posted October 16, 2021 Members Share Posted October 16, 2021 I watched SFT back when she was Marie Cheatham. Was it a numerology thing that made her change her name to Maree? She was always one of my favorites. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FrenchBug82 Posted October 16, 2021 Members Share Posted October 16, 2021 Why does he write a script if he is going to mess it up so badly? Especially with factual errors that LP corrected (kindly). Otherwise, barring the LP freezes that sometimes led to overtalking, I enjoyed the conversation very much. They are both awesome and lovely and are good friends in real life which helps in those double-interviews. Loved Maree's anecdote on Mary Stuart. I don't know if she intended it that way but it said a lot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mona Kane Croft Posted October 16, 2021 Members Share Posted October 16, 2021 Can you tell us about Maree's anecdote about Mary? Maree is notoriously tight-lipped about Mary, so I'm excited to know what she shared. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FrenchBug82 Posted October 16, 2021 Members Share Posted October 16, 2021 (edited) From the way she told the story I think it was actually the first time she met Mary Stuart which makes it even more ... special. She started by saying she was terrified of Mary Stuart when she started (and later said she was terrified of her all throughout lol). Then the anecdote: Maree mentioned that the CBS studio was very cold so she liked to wear big fluffly slippers. Their dressing rooms were upstairs and the set downstairs so there would be a lot of climbing the stairs up and down to go to rehearsals and blocking etc. So she did the trip with curlers still in her hair and her big slippers and when Mary Stuart saw her (and again this seems to be the first time they had met, or shortly after they met), she said: "So THIS is our sex symbol?". And from Maree's delivery, Stuart didn't say it in a cheeky teasing way but in a condescending manner. I think Maree's face when mimicking Stuart telling her that says everything that needs to be said about the way it was intended.

Members Mona Kane Croft Posted October 16, 2021 Members Share Posted October 16, 2021 Thank you for sharing! Maree has told this story before. It seems to be the only story she is willing to share about Mary. Nobody else from SFT will share even that much. Most of the time, when asked about Mary -- members of the cast respond with vague comments such as "Oh, dear Mary," or "Sweet Mary, what a joy." Nothing specific whatsoever. I have heard genuinely positive comments about Mary from members of the Guiding Light cast, but nothing more than vague comments from anyone connected with Search for Tomorrow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted October 16, 2021 Members Share Posted October 16, 2021 I think on SFT, it seemed like Mary viewed it as her show...and she felt protective of it. And I'd always figured LP used Vivian Leigh and Elizabeth Taylor as models when molding both Ava and Lila..so I was glad she confirmed it. And I liked that both women had a lot to say so Alan didn't rail road them either with his pointless babbling. It seems like SFT was not a show he knew much about...and that's a good thing. And Maree's tale about Irna Phillips was funny. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
