Eakes Turns The Page
Bobbie Eakes (ex-Krystal, ALL MY CHILDREN; ex-Macy, THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL) is preparing to take to the stage in a special one-night-only performance called “Turn The Page.”
“My good friend Jeff Trachta (ex-Thorne, B&B) has been championing for me to really pursue my own show for a long time,” Eakes confides to Soaps In Depth. “HE’s been doing this ever since he left B&B, and has been very successful. He said to me, this is what I was born to do.”
The actress, who made a name for herself on stage and screen, is also an accomplished vocalist, with a couple albums under her belt and a tour with Kassie DePaiva (Blair, ONE LIFE TO LIVE) and Kathy Brier (ex-Marcy, OLTL) as The Divas Of Daytime.
“It’ll be a big visual and audio retrospective of my musical tastes interwoven with a sort of history and background of me, who I am, where I came from,” Eakes previews. “I’ll talk about the pageants in Georgia, coming to LA… and I can’t ignore the 21 years I spent in soap operas! It’s going to be a lot of fun.”
“Turn The Page” will be held on Friday, November 8, at 8:00 pm at The Anneberg Theater in Palm Springs, CA. You can click here for tickets, or call (760) 322-3554.
“The Anneberg Theater is your big theater in Palm Springs,” Eakes reports. “It seats 400-plus and has a state of the art sound system. I’ve done a few benefits there. The theater is just the right size every seat in the house is a great one! I’m working on getting a surprise guest. I’m not sure if we’ll keep it a surprise until the end!”
