Activist, poet, and memoirist MAGIE DOMINIC inspired the character “Rona” in my play, Kennedy’s Children. When people scoff, “No one could have done all that Rona does,” I reply, “Oh, I left out her career in underground theatre.” See author/artist MAGIE’s WEBPAGE.
- Magie created a number of roles at the Caffe Cino, but may be best remembered for the title role in CHARLES STANLEY’s comic-book production of Snow White
- Here she is between KENNY BURGESS (“The Little Forest Animals”) and BOB LAWLOR (“Prince Charming’), photo by CONRAD WARD.
- She also played “Marguerite” in Faust, and “Veronica” in Archie and His Friends.
- Magie’s love of JOE and the Cino made her a dedicated Cino “temple slave.” Here, she’s making stars for the Dames at Sea set with JOE CINO himself. (Photo: JAMES D. GOSSAGE)
- Here, she’s running sound for TOM EYEN’s Why Hanna’s Skirt Won’t Stay Down. (Photo: JAMES D. GOSSAGE)
