Without question one of the Grandes Dames of Broadway, Elaine Stritch has a career spanning over 50 years with diverse roles in Rodgers and Hart's Pal Joey, Noel Coward's Sail Away, and most famously, Stephen Sondheim's Follies and Company, as well as numerous films and award-winning television series. Now at 77, she's as dynamic as ever, giving an astonishing performance in this highly acclaimed one-woman show. In a series of vignettes punctuated by songs from the shows in which she starred, she tells stories from her career ranging from the hilarious to the deeply moving. Hear about her disastrous but extremely funny date with Marlon Brando, her standing in for Ethel Merman in Call Me Madam in New York while performing at the same time in Newhaven in Pal Joey, working with Noel Coward, failing to get a starring role in The Golden Girls after insulting the writer, and her ultimately successful struggles with alcohol and diabetes. Songs include: "Broadway Baby," "But Not for Me," "I've Been to a Marvellous Party," "The Ladies Who Lunch," "There's No Business like Show Business," "Zip," and "I'm Still Here!"
