Elaine Stritch At
Liberty
Charity
Randall
Theatre
in Stephen Foster Memorial,
Oakland
Saturday, October 18 – 8:00pm
Cabaret
Pittsburgh
is thrilled to join Pittsburgh Irish and Classical Theatre in hosting the
legendary performer Elaine Stritch in the
Pittsburgh
premiere of her Tony
Award-winning one-woman show, At Liberty. The
one-night-only performance will be on Saturday, October 18th at 8 p.m. in the
Charity
Randall
Theatre
, Stephen Foster Memorial,
Oakland
. The evening of
music and comedy traces Stritch's life and career, which has included Tony-nominated
performances in A
Delicate Balance, Bus Stop, Sail Away and Company, where she originated the role of Joanne. Accompanied
by her musical director and collaborator Rob Bowman, she will perform the
songs of Stephen Sondheim, Noël Coward, Richard Rogers, Johnny Mercer and Irving Berlin, among
others. The show is a funny, touching and candid revelation of her life
experiences, including her battle with alcoholism. From her first experiences
in New York as a naive 17-year-old (including her date with classmate Marlon
Brando) to director Hal Prince's unfailing faith in her (even after she froze
and forgot part of a song on opening night of Company), the sassy, one-of-a-kind actor holds nothing back!
Tickets
are $50, $75, and $250; the $250 VIP tickets include premium seating and a
post-performance reception. Business and individual sponsorship packages are
also available and start at $300. VIP tickets and sponsorships are on sale
