Speaking of talented neighbors, The Gong Show (Produced by West End resident Kelly Cowan) was by all accounts,  smashing success. If you missed the show- you can still enjoy the show on video.  The West End would like to thank Marcy Mendelson for catching Carmen Miranda on video. ( Marcy has also offered to help Carmen work on some “killer” samba moves!)  The talented and dashing Clifford Hill has also taken photos of the event.
