Last Tango With Marlon: NOT A Love Lost Life

Greetings, blog readers:
As the year ends the LAST TANGO WITH MARLON juggernaut continues. We're on schedule for our three-week run in February '08, the novella has been turned into Trafford Publishing for a late January release. Santa even seems to have brought a special gift to the crew this year, but I can't, um, open it yet.
One interesting thing that crossed the eye of www.Fletcher Rhoden.com as we were setting up our new LAST TANGO WITH MARLON MySpace page is that there was a new stage play produced this year ('07) about our boy, Marlon Brando, called A LOVE LOST LIFE. It did pretty well at a few festivals back east and got plenty of good reviews. We here at fletcherrhoden.com/lasttangowithmarlon want to congratulate the cast and crew of ALLL. We had no idea until setting up our MySpace account this very day (12/12/07) that such a play existed. But without having seen it, we can already tell there are plenty of differences. Our play focuses on the friendship of Brando and Wally Cox (we doubt he's in ALLL which seems to take place near Brando's death in 2004). This undoubtedly fine play seems to be more of a drama, whereas our production leans toward the comedic. And I can't imagine they cooked up some of the wild stuff we have planned in our LAST TANGO WITH MARLON. I'm sure some themes overlap -- they're bound to. I'd like to see ALLL, I'm sure the two plays would make a fascinating study in contrast and comparison. But a man as big (figuratively and literally) as Marlon Brando can surely sustain two plays (at least) and will likely be the subject of many more. Best of luck to us all! However, I must make one correction -- I said earlier in this blog that LAST TANGO WITH MARLON was the first play to feature Brando as the lead and I now realize I was in error. I stand corrected. So here I say officially (until further information dictates) that www.Fletcher Rhoden.com presents LAST TANGO WITH MARLON, the SECOND play about the great actor Marlon Brando. We think it's still the first novella about him though!
Best of the season.
