Just announced via radio and TV news Diana Ross will be the first performer this year for Universal Studios Mardi Gras series, which begins with her on Saturday, February 13th. She performed a few years ago, also in February, for this event, which lasts thru the end of March. Each Saturday night is a major musical act.
She was just here last year, February 11th, at the new Dr. Phillips Performing Arts Center. It seems over the past ten years or so she has regularly toured Florida. There are other dates for her this year besides this date. Interesting trivia--she first performed in Orlando in November 1962 with the Supremes and the Motortown Revue at the old Orlando Colliseum.
