And yet one of the fan club presidents announced exactly that at one of their "weekends" (in 1997), to the assembled audience as though it were truth (and didn't deny or retract it when challenged on the internet).
The fc’s ridiculous claim that GWD “asked that she be moved to a different theatre” is an attempt to make him look like a nice guy, but only proves their lies – said employee NEVER WORKED IN THE MARK TAPER FORUM during her employment at the Music Center.

This time it starred Welsh actor Geraint Wyn Davies, whose checkered career included stints on TV's Airwolf and Dracula: The Series (he played Van Helsing) and a turn as the villain in the TV movie Bionic Showdown: The Six Million Dollar Man and the Bionic Woman.
Davies, God help him, gamely throws himself into the role, but his blandly handsome good looks offer neither the menace nor the soul-deep suffering that the part requires.
Bennett is so good, in fact, that he often becomes the sole reason to watch the show: a brittle, evil counter to Davies' self-involved moping.
