On Wednesday, February 15, 2012, LongHouse Reserve will hold their Winter Benefit to celebrate a revival of Edward Albee's The Lady from Dubuque in Manhattan at the Signature Center on 42nd Street. 

Peter Wilson and Scott Sanders will host cocktails and dinner in their penthouse that overlooks The High Line.  After, there will be transportation provided so guests can attend the performance of The Lady from Dubuque.

Edward Albee, an award-winning playwright, is on the arts committee at Longhouse Reserve. Albee has won three Pulitzer Prizes, two Tony's, as well as a Drama Critics Circle Award and an Outer Circle Critics Award. He has decided to collaborate with Jane Alexander to revive his 1980 play to benefit Longhouse. This will be one of the first plays to be held at the End Stage Theater which was newly renovated by Frank Gehry.

LongHouse Reserve exemplifies living with art in all its forms.  Founded by Jack Lenor Larsen, its collections, gardens, sculpture and programs, reflect world cultures and inspire a creative life.  LongHouse Reserve is a not-for-profit museum that encompasses nearly 16 beautiful acres in East Hampton, New York.  Each year the LongHouse Reserve presents major exhibitions in both the pavilion and the gardens. Currently, there are more than 60 sculptures for the gardens including works of glass by Dale Chihuly, ceramics by Takaezu, and bronzes by Barceló, Voulkos, Benglis and de Kooning. Works by Ossorio, Claus Bury, Yoko Ono, Opocensky, Izumi Masatoshi, Bryn Hunt, Eric Fischl, Roy Lichtenstein and Takashi Soga are also on view, while the installation of a Fly's Eye Dome designed by Buckminster Fuller and a site-specific Sol Lewitt add interesting scale and dimension. www.longhouse.org.
