Prior as Jimmy Love perform at the Annenberg Community Beach House during a concert reading of Glenn Paxton and Robert White’s delightful musical "WR and Daisy" on Tuesday, June 2, 2009, during the opening celebration of 'Beach=Culture: Tuesdays at the Beach House.'  "WR and Daisy" goes back in time to explore the world of mogul William Randolph Hearst and his companion Marion Davies, also known as Daisy, to solve the mystery of a fateful night onboard the yacht "Oneida." The concert reading was directed by Leslie Paxton, featuring Music Director/Pianist Vicki Kirsch and narrated by Phil Persons.

The Annenberg Community Beach House at Santa Monica State Beach is a new public beach facility open to all - no membership required. The Beach House is made possible by a generous gift from the Annenberg Foundation, at the recommendation of Wallis Annenberg, and in partnership with the City of Santa Monica and California State Parks. Additional funding was provided by the US Department of Housing & Urban Development and the federal Preserve America program.
