My memories are so good of Carl and that theatre! So many shows and stars I had always admired. I also remember David Morrison, Katy.. Will Hass. <br /><br />One day I told Carl I wanted to go to Goodman School to study tech theatre he just picked up the phone and I was in. He attended my Wedding. I had it on a Monday night so all the gang from Pheasant Run come. I will always rent him when I use the casseroles he gave me as a wedding present, they have lasted longer than the husbands and now the kids are all grown.<br /><br /> I was so surprised when I look up on the big screen in Geneva and saw Bill<br /> Morey up there.<br /><br />My heart was broken when I heard how Carl died and attend the service. <br />Bless you for reminding me of Carl and and the only the only Thrust stage with a full curtain.<br />Bonna Hill Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03737279810216344393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6313033931673671242.post-65888046896497786282020-10-13T19:05:01.514-07:002020-10-13T19:05:01.514-07:00This is so interesting as I believe I reside in Ca...This is so interesting as I believe I reside in Carl’s home in Wayne, IL. I’ve heard from neighbors when I bought the home in 2006 that Carl liked to entertain and, in fact, Phyllis Diller was reported to have been seen (and heard laughing) from the house. When I read about his cherished little dog, I wonder if the existing pet door between my living room and screened-in porch was installed by Carl. It’s so great to hear all the wonderful things about him, yet sad to hear how his beautiful life ended so devastatingly. When I was a child in the 1960s, my Mom took me to my first play, at Drury Lane in Evergreen Park—The Pleasure of His Company with Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. I wonder if Carl was there that same night.

Kind as kind could be best described him. Even though I appeared in "Make a Million" starring Jackie Coogan and Walter Keonig at Pheasant Run as well as in several shows for the kids, I expanded my love of producing and public relations working in the Pheasant Run office under Carl's supervision. Carl constantly encouraged me and wanted me to do my best and was a wonderful teacher. Because of Carl, I've had a heck of a good time for a heck of a lot of decades doing what I love.

I got my equity card by appearing in Picnic, with Edd "Kookie" Byrnes in 1965. I had been an apprentice, and acted in the children theatre in many shows, starting with the Red Shoes, Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, Little Women, A Christmas Carol, and more. I worked with many stars - Gary Merrill, Rudy Vallee, Brandon de Wilde, Ray Milland, Ron Ely, Phyllis Diller, Carolyn Jones, Virginia Graham, June Allison, Bettie Hutton, Teresa Wright and more.<br />Carl lived for many years in Wayne, a small town near Pheasant Run, owned a horse, and rode with the Dunham Woods Hunt. He brought many celebrities there to ride with him, including Tab Hunter and William Shatner.<br />I also fondly remember the great Chicago actor Bill Morey, and director David Morrison.<br />I appreciate the opportunity to remember this special time, and special person Carl Stohn Jr.Anderson Rowlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03735644303012643473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6313033931673671242.post-79770517494647872022014-12-31T14:58:31.536-08:002014-12-31T14:58:31.536-08:00Very doable - You got this!!!

I think, but am not yet absolutely sure, Abel Kent Sr. is my ancestor. One of the points of confusion has been his birth date. In ancestry.com, the birth date for the Abel Kent who appears the most likely candidate for my family tree is listed as September 20, 1753. Having read your post, I now see how the error crept into the record.<br /><br />I believe my lineage to Abel Sr is as follows:<br /><br />me (Steve Kent) -> Alan Burnett Kent -> Vernon Kent -> Horatio Nelson Kent Jr. -> Horatio Nelson Kent Sr. -> Carlton Kent -> Abel Kent Sr. <br /><br />If you have any information which confirms or denies the correctness of this, I'd appreciate hearing from you. I also look forward to reading the description of Shays Rebellion on your website.<br /><br />Rgds,<br /><br />Steve Kent<br />Fairfax, VA<br />spk1171@gmail.comSteve Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00037662256551773173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6313033931673671242.post-54494783437774571482014-03-25T18:39:36.427-07:002014-03-25T18:39:36.427-07:00Carl cast me in my first professional acting role ...Carl cast me in my first professional acting role at the Drury Lane Theater, appearing with Maureen O'Sullivan. When he opened the Pheasant Run Theater I became part of his resident company. Carl then called in an agent from William Morris in NYC to view me in a role Carl selected solely to give me a showcase, and I was off to Broadway. Carl had an irrepressible cheerfulness that was totally infectious. He treated everyone with the greatest respect, be it an audience member, a walk-on actor, or a star. He gave many actors their first break, and some fading actors a last hurrah. I cried when I heard of his untimely passing.Eric Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14813141681577003061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6313033931673671242.post-15932157569864546562014-01-23T10:58:25.284-08:002014-01-23T10:58:25.284-08:00Maybe!

I felt a lot of the same feelings, even though I'm only 16.
