Chef Lisa Schwab, owner of Cantalini’s Salerno Beach Restaurant, encourages her fellow “Women on a Roll†to follow her lead to the rolling waves of the north Pacific this August, with the Pride of the Ocean Film Festival. Join her and the other women of WOAR in toasting this year’s Body of Work Honoree, the dynamic Andrea Meyerson – founder of the active social organization for lesbians.

— so much so that she is making time for her first vacation in many years to be on the Norwegian Pearl with the other women of WOAR to celebrate Andrea!
Chef Schwab’s traditional Italian cuisine restaurant – always receiving rave reviews from fans of authentic Italian – won another devotee when Cantalini’s catered the WOAR Holiday Party last December, sponsored by Pride of the Ocean. Our Program Director, John Scagliotti, pronounced her dish “the best Chicken Piccata… EVER!”

Our Program Director, John Scagliotti, gets into the swing of things on his way to the Hollywood WOAR Party.
The mistletoe was out this past weekend in Hollywood as Pride of the Ocean’s Cruise Director, Jim Pollin, and Program Director, John Scagliotti sponsored the Holiday Party for the Women On A Roll.  And we are delighted that so many Women on A Roll will be joining us on our next film festival cruise. What a great group they are! Great dancers and the caterer of the party is coming too! She has heard about the great food on the ship.

We’ll be honoring the founder of WOAR, Andrea Meyerson, as our recipient of the Body of Work recognition.  And you can see some of that body in our new festival video which we premiered at the LA LGBT Center’s Renberg Theater. It stars Casper Andreas (GOING DOWN IN LA LA LAND), Sebastian La Cause (HUSTLING Series) and the very talented Emmy-winner, Mark Payne. The show in LA was closed out with a special appearance of Liza Minelli. Only in LA does it get this wild and to think it is coming on board the Norwegian Pearl soon. Click here http://vimeo.com/54798831  to view (you’ll need to write the password: norwegianpearl
