A Gala Evening With Christine Ebersole
8/23/2012
Location: Axelrod Performing Arts Center
Description: A Gala Evening With Tony Winning Actress and Film/Television Star Christine Ebersole Thursday, August 23, 8PM Christine Ebersole brings her recent Carlyle engagement show to the Axelrod PAC. The evening is sure to be one of the highlights of the Axelrod season and will help raise much needed funds to support our programming. Christine Ebersole's Carlyle show at the Axelrod is sure to include such classics as Strike Up The Band, Johnny One Note, Right as the Rain, Pennies from Heaven, Brother Can You Spare a Dime and from Her Tony Award winning performance in Grey Gardens, "Will You" Stephen Holden of the NY Times called her show "the Apex of New York." All those voices belong to Christine Ebersole, and she uses every one of them - and more - in her unmissable cabaret act at the Cafe Carlyle. I have long been an admirer of Ms. Ebersole's versatility as a New York actress in musicals (and plays, too, but the subject today is song). Listening to the range of her technique packed into roughly an hour of performance time pushed my admiration into something like awe." Ben Brantley, The New York Times: "Ever since last Saturday night I've been hearing voices. One of them is a clear, righteous soprano that recalls Joan Baez, another is a lilting, silvery curlicue like that of the soubrette in an operetta from the gaslight era; then there's the sassy "Hello, boys" trumpet of a girl singer with a big band; and, most hauntingly, there's the glasslike voice that seems to exist expressly as a container for the shimmering pain within. Christine Ebersole won The 2007 "Tony Award for Outstanding Actress" in the "role of a lifetime" as "Edie Beale" in the acclaimed Tony Nominated Broadway Musical "GREY GARDENS". Lauded with virtually every Off- Broadway theater award when it premiered at Playwrights Horizon, GREY GARDENS went on to pack its Broadway theater for over a year, with every theater critic praising Christine's bravura performance. She starred opposite Angela Lansbury and Rupert Everett in the 2009 spring and summer Broadway hit "BLITHE SPIRIT," has enchanted audiences throughout her performing career, from the Broadway stage to television series' and specials, film, concert appearances and recordings. Currently, Christine can be seen in TV Land's new comedy series "Retired at 35." Christine has won critical acclaim as well as the Outer Critics Circle Award and the Tony Award for Best Outstanding Actress in a Musical, for her portrayal of "Dorothy Brock" in the revival of "42nd STREET.," starred in "DINNER AT EIGHT", garnering a Tony Award nomination and starred as M'Lynn on Broadway in "STEEL MAGNOLIAS". In concert, Christine has appeared in concert at Carnegie Hall with The San Francisco Symphony (PBS Special), multiple concerts with The Boston Pops, multiple appearances at The Kennedy Center Honors, a 2009 solo concert at The Kennedy Center and in virtually every city across the country.

This intense and exciting two-character bio-drama starred Alfred Molina and Eddie Redmayne (Broadway debut) and ran for 101 performances.

A world auction record was set for a work of contemporary art when Mark Rothko’s “Orange, Red, Yellow” painted in 1961 recently sold for just under $87 million.
