Happy Birthday Dame Julie Andrews!

The hills are alive
With the sound of Julie
Moving along with a jive
An ageless beauty

Victor Victoria and The Sound of Music
With Mary Poppins adds to pure magic
Theatre, movies, musicals and records
Hitting the set of perfect chords
A truly multitalented performer
With a knack of being a transformer

Damehood received
Fans very pleased
Our Dame Julie
We love you truly

Happy International Dame Angela Lansbury Appreciation Day!

She’s got grace and style
And to top it, a great smile
Oh those blue eyes
Could light up the skies
Her face most adorable
Her talent undeniable
Like the whirlwind
Still hard at working
A Queen without a crown
A Dame with a gown
She is the belle of the ball
So say we all
Now and for ever more

Happy Birthday Sir Pat!

“A couple of years ago, I was asked, ‘How would you like to be remembered?’ And my answer was ‘That I was very funny.’” Sir Patrick Stewart

Happy Birthday Sir Pat!

Main Pat Stew

Totally charming
Maybe even utterly harming
When you make us laugh
And make us cry
With a voice like that
Sir Pat in a hat
Canny as a cat
Who could resist
Of being kissed
By a great fellow
You’re hell of’
An actor, a Captain and a King
And even able to sing!

Wishing you a merry, happy and utterly great Birthday
And as the cliche goes, if I may

“Live Long And Prosper
Oh, Captain of Captains!”

Happy Birthday, Kate Mulgrew!

“I think people think I’m accessible. I’m never treated as a star, either by fans or other actors, and I like it like that. I don’t get the star treatment. I think that means I’m a good actor. They acknowledge me as a human being, and to me, that’s invalua.”
— Kate Mulgrew

Captain, My Captain

Legendary
Iconic
Beloved
Ageless

Extraordinary
Special
Remarkable
Fantastic

Captivating
Enchanting
Fascinating
Unforgettable
