In 1961, my girlfriend’s Dad took us and her 3 sisters to Ivar to watch a play. I don’t remember the name of the play, but it was about people in the Army. At one point, a really obese guy came walking onstage in a sergeant’s uniform, and everyone laughed because he was obese. Doesn’t seem like something to laugh at now. I always remembered the name of the place, and in 1985 I drove with a friend in my new red Corvette to Hollywood, looking for clubs to go to. Driving around, I saw the Ivar and remembered it. So we parked and went in. The guy in the parking lot said Bill Bixby had a car just like mine. Anyway, the theatre was a strip club by then, and not a very good one. We didn’t stay for very long.
