Over 11 years and 570 episodes, John Rabe and Team Off-Ramp scoured SoCal for the people, places, and ideas whose stories needed to be told, and the show became a love-letter to Los Angeles. Now, John is sharing selections from the Off-Ramp vault to help you explore this imperfect paradise.

Monday, the Geffen Playhouse is hosting a staged reading of “The Normal Heart,” Larry Kramer’s wrenching play about the AIDS crisis. It's a 25th anniversary benefit performance for a clinic at the LA Gay and Lesbian Center, and it's directed by Joel Grey, who played Ned in “The Normal Heart” 25 years ago. (COME INSIDE for a link to the production, a look at Grey many years ago, and info on Grey's new exhibit of celphone photos.)
This time on Off-Ramp, in a four-part interview, Joel Grey talks with host John Rabe about his decades in show business, including "Dallas," "Alias," "Cabaret," "Wicked," and even an appearance on Tom Jones' variety show in the 1960s.
