It's a family affair when Broadway leading lady Laura Benanti returns to Landmark, this time joined by mom Linda Benanti a former Broadway actress in her own right, for their new hit revue, The Story Continues, at the Jeanne Rimsky stage on Saturday, April 14 at 8 PM.
Laura Benanti is a Tony Award winning actress who began her Broadway career at the age of 18, starring opposite Richard Chamberlain in The Sound of Music. Since then, Laura has appeared in 9 Broadway shows ( including Gypsy and She Loves Me ), been nominated for 5 Tony Awards, and continues her flourishing television career ( The Detour, Nashville, Supergirl, The Good Wife ). Laura began studying voice with her mother as a young child, and is absolutely THRILLED that Linda has agreed to return to the stage in this musical celebration of family.
Linda Benanti, an accomplished actress and singer who performed on Broadway, off Broadway and regionally, gave birth to Laura Benanti in 1979.
