Marty Allen to appear at Newnan Habitat benefit

Marty, a self-proclaimed Troll

Doll, still sports the explosive hairstyle that made him so memorable

when he was part of the comedy team Allen & Rossi in the '60s.

That association produced a string of hit comedy albums, dozens of television

appearances, including 40 visits to the Ed Sullivan Show.

Unlike most performers, Marty

is one that has stood the test of time and he "enjoys every minute

of it," he said. Throughout the 1970s and into the 1980s, Marty made

hundreds of TV appearances, was a guest on all the talk shows and became

a regular on "Hollywood Squares." With just as much spark and

energy as he possessed 30 years ago, you can catch Marty and his lovely

partner and singing sensation, Karon Kate Blackwell, performing in the

showrooms of Las Vegas, Atlantic City and on cruise ships taking their

wit, music and charm around the world.

"I am thrilled to have

my long-time friend and professional entertainer, Marty Allen, join me

to help raise money for Habitat," said Pengelly, who added that he

has been honored to know and work with Marty over the years.

Eric Arnold, a 14-year-old

Boy Scout, is the promoter of this show. Eric has taken on the responsibility

of raising $10,000 to benefit Newnan-Coweta Habitat for Humanity. All

proceeds will go toward the building of a house on the east side of the

county. The house will be dedicated in memory of Michael Thompson, a local

Habitat lead construction manager who passed away earlier this year.

The show takes place tomorrow

at 7 p.m. at the First United Methodist Church of Newnan. Tickets are

$10 per person and can be purchased by calling 770-252-9049.
