Stars make benefit Happen by Gayle Fee and Laura Raposa Tuesday, May 29, 2001 ``What's the Worst That Could Happen'' director Sam Weisman hosts Michael J. Fox and a posse of his celebrity pals tonight at a benefit sneak peek at the made-in-Mass. flick at the Wang Theatre. All the funds raised will be given to Fox's foundation for Parkinson's Disease research. Besides Sam and Mike, who worked together a lifetime ago on ``Family Ties,'' cast members Lenny Clarke, Nora Dunn, Sascha Knopf, Siobhan Fallon and GQ have RSVP'd to the bash. Locals with roles in the MGM comedy - fab Four Seasons GM Robin Brown, KISS 108 morning man Matt Siegel and ex-Bruin Cam Neely will make the screening scene. And word is, F.O.M. Denis Leary, who is in town doing some of his firefighter foundation work, may also show. Before the screening, big donors who ponied up $1,000 per ticket will get to meet Michael and party with the staahs (sadly, the movie's marquee names Danny DeVito and Martin Lawrence will be MIA) on the Wang stage. Hamersley's Bistro, which played a role in the film which shot here last summer, will provide the elegant eats. After the applause, those who paid $150 for their tickets will repair with Robin to the fab Four for dessert. Which sounds like the best Thing That Could Happen! http://www.bostonherald.com/news/inside_track/track05292001.htm ********* ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
