Photo Flash: Elaine Stritch at SOPAC
Tony and Emmy Award winner Elaine Stritch took to the SOPAC stage for the season's opening theater event. Ms. Stritch's career spans over six decades, with some of the most memorable performances on Broadway, recently culminating in the critically acclaimed one-woman cabaret show at the Hotel Carlyle. She, along with other Broadway actors, participated in Food for Thought's award-winning one-act series, which met with great success during Season Three.
The evening featured Elaine Stritch in the role of Amanda in Tennessee Williams' The Pretty Trap, which Williams called "A Comedy In One Act." This gem of a play, sometimes referred to as a "spinoff" of The Glass Menagerie with a happy ending, was premiered at Food For Thought. The role of Laura was played by Tasha Lawrence and was directed by Antony Marsellis.
