Hal Holbrook was not only a performer at Proctors but a patron who helped shine a light on the historic theater. 
(It was announced this week that Holbrook, 95, died on Jan. 23 at his home in Beverly Hills.)
In 1981, just a few years after the theater had reopened, Holbrook performed “Mark Twain Tonight!” a show that Dennis Madden, former executive director of Proctors, well remembers. 
“It took him four hours to get [his] makeup on every night and, me being rather new at Proctors, a good deal of that time . . . I sat with him as he put his makeup on in our old dressing rooms and got to know him a little bit,” Madden said.
