Hosted by New York Post theatre columnist Michael Riedel and producer Susan Haskins, the program will feature interviews with Stritch and Wolfe as well as clips from Stritch's theatrical tour de force, which began life at Wolfe's Public Theater Off-Broadway.

Hirschfeld also reminisces about his time spent living in Paris in the 1920s as well as his 78 years drawing theatrical personalities.

Arthur, a Tony winner for her work in Broadway's Mame, will discuss her current Broadway hit, Bea Arthur on Broadway: Just Between Friends, which is now playing the Booth Theatre.
