My congratulations to three good friends, philanthropists Brooks and Kate Firestone and author Fannie Flagg, as well as one of my favorite theater companies, Ensemble, who have been chosen as Granada Theatre Legends.

They will be honored at a glittering 7th annual gala at the iconic State Street theater on September 16.

The highly anticipated evening features inspiring honorees, extraordinary talent, and dedicated patrons of the arts all in one place to support Santa Barbara’s performing arts community.

“All the honorees are remarkable in their own way and have left an indelible mark on the arts, not just here in Santa Barbara, but around the world,” says Palmer Jackson Jr., chairman of the Granada’s board.

“Their contributions have not only enriched our lives but have forged a legacy and remind us of the transformative power of the arts.”

I couldn’t agree more…
