HOW ARE CELEBRITIES MOURNING THE LOSS OF ACTOR PAUL NEWMANN?”
Julia Roberts, Sean Penn and Tom Hanks are taking the stage to honor the charity work of late actor Paul Newman. The A-listers — along with Jack Nicholson, Bruce Willis, Danny Devito, Warren Beatty, Annette Bening, Billy Crystal and Danny Glover — will perform a staged reading of The World of Nick Adams, an adaptation of a number of Ernest Hemingway’s stories by A.E. Hotchner, at San Francisco’s Davies Symphony Hall on October 27. Proceeds benefit the Painted Turtle, the sixth addition to Newman’s Hole in the Wall camps for seriously ill children, in California. There are 11 Camps around the world, with additional programs in Africa and Vietnam. Collectively, the camps have aided more than 135,000 children.
