Hollywood Arms: An Anniversary Reading

Merkin Concert Hall at the Kaufman Center, New York City

About the Show

Carol Burnett and Sundance Institute Theatre Program Artistic Director Philip Himberg will introduce this special anniversary concert reading of the Broadway production of Burnett’s autobiographical play Hollywood Arms. Written with her daughter Carrie Hamilton and based on Burnett’s bestselling memoir, the play tells the story of three generations of fiercely-determined women living on welfare in a one-room Hollywood apartment. Directed by Broadway veteran and Sundance Institute alum Mark Brokaw, the recipient of Drama Desk, Obie and Lucille Lortel Awards, the reading stars Tony winner Tyne Daly (Gypsy, It Shoulda Been You), 2014 Tony nominee Emily Skeggs (Fun Home) and Michele Pawk (Hairspray, Cabaret, Mamma Mia!) in her Tony-winning role.
