Turning Page opened off-Broadway at Dixon Place on Monday, February 27th. Take a look at the cast enjoying opening night festivities!

Written and performed by Angelica Page, and directed by Tony Award nominated Wilson Milam, Turning Page tells Geraldine Page's unbelievable story - one of a rebel and trail blazer whose sparkling career earned her an Academy Award and a record-breaking eight nominations, and whose untimely death in 1987 deprived us of one of entertainment's most dazzling figures.

As Angelica Page explains, "I began developing Turning Page, under the direction of Wilson Milam in 2012 after years of avoiding the subject: unearthing my late mother, Geraldine Page who, during her lifetime was dubbed 'the greatest actress of the English language.' I grew up in the center of her sparkling career which earned her a record-breaking eight Academy Award-nominations, and made her one of the most influential and celebrated American artists of the 20th century. I also witnessed her personal life which was marred by loss and tragedy.

"As her only daughter I feel compelled to share her lessons and gifts with others who did and did not have the opportunity to know her magic intimately. She was a true rebel and trail blazer. A masterful woman who was ahead of her time and should not be forgotten anytime soon."

Angelica Page recently starred on Broadway in the Tony nominated The Best Man. Other Broadway credits include Anna Christie (Tony Award Best Revival), Side Man (Tony Award Best Play, Helen Hayes Award Best Actress), the National Broadway Tour of the Pulitzer Prize winning August: Osage County (Tony Award Best Play, Helen Hayes Nomination Best Actress). Her Off Broadway credits include Edge as Sylvia Plath (New Times Award Best Actress, Outer Critics Circle Nomination Best Solo Performance) and Vagina Monologues (original production & Madison Square Garden). Angelica has appeared in eighteen films including Oscar nominated movies Nobody's Fool, The Sixth Sense and The Contender. She has appeared on TV for CBS, NBC, ABC, TNT, Showtime and HBO.

Tickets are $25 in advance, $27 at the box office and $20 for seniors and students. Tickets can be purchased by visiting dixonplace.org/performances/turning-page or by calling 866-811-4111.
