Keating Update- At press time , Another World was making final preparations for its fan club luncheon on Saturaday, April18, in N.Y.C. According to Victoria Wyndham(Rachel) both she and Charles Keating (Carl) would be attending."We'll be there Briefly", said Wyndham,"but not participating in the [entertainment]." She and Keating were to perform their own show, Between Ourselves, the next day, which Wyndham described as "severely under-rehearsed."
Meanwhile, Some of Keating's AW co-workers were still buzzing over his Ouster, but were not totally surprized by it. "We will miss him," said one setside source, "but Charles was not the easiest person to work with. He was constantly the limits of the cast and crew."
"He was very unhappy playing the character as written so he would change the dialogue," added another colleague. "That wreaked havoc with his storyline and caused problems with his co-stars."
Wyndham is not one of them. "I keep losing acting partners," the actress laments. "God knows, it seems to be the kiss of death to work with Wyndham on Another World." However, she adds that the fans "have been terribly touching, intuitive, intelligent and moving about what has been a very difficult thing for me to go through." Although she's not leaving AW any time soon, Wyndham seems to feel that she would have the fans' blessing if she decided to go. "They've been very gracious about giving me permission [to leave the show], which is very sweet of them They feel it's their show, and I must say I rather agree with them. Fans have been very supportive about me doing whatever I need to do. And when I know what that is, I'll do it."
