Valerie Harper returns to Broadway as Tallulah Bankhead in LOOPED, Matthew Lombardo's new comedy opening this Sunday March 14 at the Lyceum Theatre. That morning, watch CBS SUNDAY MORNING ‘s feature story on LOOPED, including behind the scenes footage of Ms. Harper's transformation into the legendary Tallulah, as well as her interview with correspondent Rita Braver in the Algonquin Hotel, where Tallulah Bankhead lived when she first moved to New York.

CBS Sunday Morning airs on Channel 2 in NY at 9 AM; elsewhere in the country please check local listings.

LOOPED opens this Sunday March 14 at the Lyceum Theatre (149 West 45th Street) and tells the story of Tallulah Bankhead, the internationally celebrated actress, being called into a sound studio in 1965 to re-record (or "loop") one line of dialogue for what would be her last film -- the dreadful "Die, Die My Darling." Southern, but by no means a belle, Ms. Bankhead was known for her wild partying and convention-defying exploits that surpassed even today's celebrity bad girls. Given her inebriated state and inability to loop the line properly, what ensues is an uproarious showdown between an uptight film editor and the outrageous legend. Brian Hutchison and Michael Mulheren complete the company. It is directed by Rob Ruggiero.
