FREEPORT, Bahamas -- Actor John Travolta and his wife, Kelly Preston, have returned to Florida with the remains of their 16-year- old son, Jett, who died at the family vacation home in Grand Bahama. The couple received an urn with his ashes and left the island chain on Monday night, according to Obie Wilchcombe, a member of the Bahamas parliament and a family friend.
I was inspired by the friendliness and the similarity of both places," he said. In fact he was so inspired that, on his return home, he wrote the song "Sister City" that was performed for the first time by the Chorale on the evening of May 7. The Minister of Tourism of the Bahamas, the Right Honourable Obie Wilchcombe, sat in the front row, tapping his feet and singing along with familiar favorites such as "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" and "When the Saints Go Marching In" and smiling at old 1960s melodies. "It is interesting," he said, "that there are few Bahamian families who cannot point to the fact that they have distant relatives residing in Key West," citing shared names such as Pinder, Malone, Key and Lowe.
NASSAU, Bahamas (AP) - Authorities in the Bahamas have charged an island lawmaker and detained two other people in an alleged plot to extort money from actor John Travolta after the death of his son, police said Friday. Two of the suspects - ambulance driver Tarino Lightbourne and former tourism minister Obie Wilchcombe - were detained on Friday. Earlier, several tabloids quoted Lightbourne describing efforts to revive the celebrity's chronically ill son, Jett, who died of a seizure this month at their family vacation home on Grand Bahama.
NEW YORK -- The Roundabout Theatre Company says Sienna Miller will make her Broadway debut this fall in its production of "After Miss Julie," playwright Patrick Marber's riff on a 19th-century Strindberg classic about class, sex and power. The three-character play will be directed by Mark Brokaw. Other casting, the performance schedule and theater will be announced later. In "After Miss Julie," Marber has updated Strindberg's "Miss Julie" to 1945 on the eve of the Labor Party's election victory in England.
