1975. Eppie Lederer has a big problem. Where can she turn for advice? Ann Landers, of course. But Eppie is Ann...Filled with bon bons, bon mots, bubble baths and Chanel No. 5, this warm and engaging one-woman show brings us an Ann Landers we've never seen before-a "lady with all the answers" coping with a problem that doesn't have an easy solution.
Featuring Christine Crawfis as Eppie Lederer.
For decades, newspaper columnist and Chicago icon Ann Landers dispensed wit and wisdom to lovelorn teens, confused couples, and others in need of advice. Now she finds herself writing a column about a new kind of heartbreak—her own. Drawn from her life and letters, this touchingly comic portrait will remind you why so many put their faith in this wise, funny, no-nonsense woman.
Praise for Previous Productions: “...a warmhearted play...highly entertaining, frequently moving...” Chicago Tribune. “...folksy, funny, straightforward and validating...a smile-inducing, tear duct-activating reunion with a woman who might have been a stranger but seemed like family...engaging from beginning to end.” L.A. Times. “David Rambo’s new one- woman play...[about] the witty, bubbly, frank, and slightly eccentric writer...provides a compelling portrait of her.” BackStage West. “LADY is surprisingly crisp and loaded with detail. The first act is breezy, funny and gossipy...The second act is darker and more touching.” North County Times.
