The Actors Fund announced today that The Parisian Woman has added a Special Final Benefit Performance for The Actors Fund. This benefit performance will be held on Sunday, March 11, 2018 at 7:30 pm at Hudson Theatre (141 West 44th Street).
Academy Award® nominee Uma Thurman stars in The Parisian Woman, a new play written by Academy Award® and Emmy® Award nominee Beau Willimon (House of Cards) and directed by Tony Award® winner Pam McKinnon (Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?).
Set in Washington, D.C., where powerful friends are the only kind worth having, the story follows Chloe (Uma Thurman), a socialite armed with charm and wit, coming to terms with politics, her past, her marriage and an uncertain future. Dark humor and drama collide at this pivotal moment in Chloe’s life, and in our nation’s, when the truth isn’t obvious and the stakes couldn’t be higher.
The Parisian Woman began performances November 9 at Hudson Theatre, and also stars Josh Lucas (Sweet Home Alabama), Marton Csokas (The Lord of the Rings), Tony Award® nominee Phillipa Soo(Hamilton) and Tony Award® winner Blair Brown.
Premium ticketbuyers ($300) will be invited to post-show reception with the cast (subject to availability). Tickets are now on sale at www.actorsfund.org/TheParisianWoman or by calling 212.221.7300 ext. 133.
