A Broadway Cares/Equity Fights Aids Fundraiser honoring Elizabeth Taylor’s devotion to AIDS Awareness on WORLD AIDS DAY December 1st 2024 @ Don’t Tell Mama 4pm & 7pm. The show is an evening of story and song about Ann and Elizabeth’s amazing bond. It is filled with hilarious and touching stories that only Ann can tell, woven with Broadway and Great American Songbook gems. Ann’s imitation of Elizabeth is so spot on, if you close your eyes, you’ll swear they’re together again! DONATIONS may also be made at https://broadwaycares.org/anntalman or at each performance via BC/EFA's iconic RED BUCKETS. Ann Talman, actor, singer, storyteller, award winning documentary filmmaker, and four-time Broadway veteran, joined Actors’ Equity with co-star Elizabeth Taylor in 1981 when she landed the plum role in The Little Foxes playing Taylor’s daughter on Broadway. The show traveled the world for eighteen months and their loving friendship lasted for the rest of Miss Taylor’s life. Ann’s show, Elizabeth Taylor and The Shadow of Her Smile, is directed by Bistro and MAC Award winners Lina Koutrakos with musical direction by Alex Rybeck. The show received critical and audience acclaim when it debuted at 54 Below in March 2022 and then again when it enjoyed a two-night encore engagement the following September, 2022. It has played The Laurie Beechman, Feinstein’s Hotel Carmichael in Carmel, IN, Feinstein’s Hotel Nikko in San Fran, Chicago’s Davenports, Joe Brancato’s The Penguin Rep, Chicago’s Davenport’s, The Delray Beach Playhouse, The Westport Country Playhouse, Tucson’s Invisible Theatre, DC’s The Liz, and will be soon appearing in London, The Austin Cabaret Theatre, Theatre Jacksonville, DC’s National Arts Club, And ACT 2PV The Red Room, Puerta Vallarta, Mexico, in 2025.
