A lot of soap operas have been cancelled recently—not even James Franco could save them (although the one he's appeared on, General Hospital, is one of the last remaining). For fans of All My Children, whose finale airs on September 23rd, it may be comforting to know that the show will go on... albeit very briefly, and away from your television screen.
On October 25th New York City's Town Hall will become home to A Tribute to Pine Valley, where we're told "fans will be up close and personal with their favorite stars in this wildly entertaining event that features audience interaction, lively question and answers, behind the scene stories and secrets, trivia, photos and autograph signings. The event concludes with a highly emotional walk down memory lane, as fans relive moments of joy, sorrow, tragedy and triumph from the past 41 years of this beloved soap with their favorite actors." Bring your hankies!
All My Children cast members will include: Michael E. Knight (Tad), Walt Willey (Jackson), Cameron Mathison (Ryan), Vincent Irizarry (David), Julia Barr (Brooke) and Jacob Young (JR). (Thanks for nothin', Susan Lucci!) Following the NYC show, the troupe will hit up New Brunswick, NJ and Long Island. Until then, you can follow along on Twitter and Facebook... but after that, it's time to step away from your stories and re-enter the real world.
