Julie Halston signs books. The event is the only reading color coordinated with green and purple M&M'S. Very funny. Be sure to buy the book of monologues. You also need to look at Julie's adorable site which is done by Charles Busch's wig expert. I met her at Broadway Bingo and she is incredibly talented.http://www.juliehalston.com. Be sure to look for Julie in the upcoming SEX AND THE CITY film where she plays Nathan Lane's wife. Don't forget to catch her in East Hampton with Charles Busch in Shaghai Moon.
