Remember Potsie and Ralph Malph?
A few of the original cast members and VIP’s from the iconic TV show, “Happy Days”, will be in the Gammage Theater audience on opening night for the Tempe debut of the musical stage version of the hit TV show.
Producer/writer/director Garry Marshall, Anson Williams (Potsie) and Don Most (Ralph Malph) are among the noted celebrities who will attend the Tuesday, Nov. 18 performance.
Heeeeey, it should be cool. The cast and VIP’s plan to arrive in classic 1950s cars and walk the red carpet.
Gammage, part of Arizona State University, is located on Mill and Apache.

You’re always welcome in Phoenix–even if you are in Switzerland. Loved that movie, by the way.
