PHOTO CALL: Redgrave's Nightingale Opens Off-Broadway
By Matthew Blank
November 4, 2009
Lynn Redgrave's solo show inspired by the life of her maternal grandmother opened Nov. 3 at Off-Broadway's Manhattan Theatre Club.
The new play, directed by Joseph Hardy, is "inspired by [Redgrave's] need to create a life for her maternal grandmother, a woman she barely knew." It's billed as a play "about a promising woman stymied by society and all but erased by history, a touching personal tribute and a resounding song for all those people whose voices we've lost, or never known."
Here is a look at the opening-night party held at Beacon on West 56th Street:
