Jackson was the keynote speaker at "Racial Awareness Day," organized in the wake of an Oct. 27 fight between black New York Mets fans and white Boston Red Sox fans following the Red Sox' loss in the final game of the World Series...

Indeed, we are on a bus-and- truck tour, a theatrical institution of small renown wherein cast, crew, orchestra, props and scenery pile into buses and trucks to barnstorm the country. This particular company is spending five months on the road doing mostly one-night stands.
