DOROTHY COLLINS, who will star as Maria in "The Sound of Music," opening Tuesday night, June 9, at Melodyland Theatre. Musical "Music" is the second of Melodyland's bonus attractions in its 1964 season. "Sound Of Music" Star On The Go To Success Hundreds of fan letters awaited Dorothy Collins' arrival from New York to appear in "The Sound of Music," now playing at Melodyland Theatre in Anaheim. But one note in particular, from a local housewife, really broke the star up. “What,” asked the curious lady, “have you been doing, Miss Collins, since you left the Lucky Strike ‘Hit Parade’ back in 1956?” It would take a couple of dozen typewritten pages to supply all the answers; but briefly, Dorothy has appeared year after year on practically every top network radio and TV program in the country; the Perry Como, Herb Shriner, Candid Camera, Pat Boone, Steve Allen, Danny Kay Shows, to name a few, plus the Hollywood Palace a few weeks ago. The petite and talented blonde beauty also has a nice healthy nightclub career going for her, and over the past eight years, she has played fifteen to twenty-five state fairs from East to West. When it comes to musical comedies — you name it; Dorothy has starred in it: “Carousel,” “The Wizard of Oz.” “Fanny,” “South Pacific,” “Brigadoon,” etc. When Dorothy rests, that’s when she works hardest, making records and raising her two youngsters and even cooking for her husband, famed musical conductor Raymond Scott. After “The Sound of Music” closes at Melodyland Theatre a few weeks hence, Dorothy hops up to Toronto for a 4-week play stint, then down to Indianapolis for another month in a starring role. That, Dear Fan, is why Dorothy Collins has been doing since the Lucky Strike “Hit Parade” closed.
