Jim Dale performs his one-man show as a benefit for Penguin Rep Theatre, a Stony Point-based professional theatre housed in a repurposed hay barn circa 1880. The show combines humor, storytelling, personal anecdotes, and theatrical insight, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the challenges of live theatre. Dale recounts with wit and humor what happened when Laurence Olivier chose him and Anthony Hopkins to star in a two-man play, The Architect and the Emperor of Assyria, in what became a catastrophic disaster on the National Theatre stage. Dale is a Tony Award winner for the Broadway musical Barnum and won five Drama Desk Awards for his performances in New York.
