on Aug 1st, 2007Lillian Booth Actors Home for Elderly Igenues
Broadway attracts the ego like mosquitoes are attracted to a pale woman’s arm. Over time, though, the ego undergoes a transformation that places less emphasis on public approval and gravitates toward an inner audience that could care less about satisfying a stranger’s penchant for entertainment. Patricia Ben Peterson once plied her personality on Broadway but now finds herself entertaining the elder at the Lillian Booth Actors Home. Nothing like a good third act that surprises even those who thought they saw the ending from the opening curtain.
