Sarah Paulson Instagram – Repost from @alliesinarts • The *last-ever* performance of @hollandvtaylor’s ANN is on April 24th at @pasadenaplayhouse. Go see it while you can, California! “With nothing but a desk, a phone and the off-stage voice of Richards’ secretary, Nancy Kohler (Julie White), Taylor whips Richards into such a whirlwind of multilayered multitasking that it seems that she will not only (among many other things) stay an execution, solve a financial issue, plan a family gathering, goad her speechwriter into finishing, give a filmmaker a quote about abortion rights, buy her entire staff cowboy boots, speak with then-President Clinton (twice), but also, quite possibly, split the atom. It is a breathtaking performance. Not only does Richards never miss a beat, but Taylor’s performance is so superbly alive that you feel as if there were 20 other people on stage, having full-on crises and conversations, all made real simply by the actor’s near-supernatural ability to conjure them” (Mary McNamara for the @latimes). #hollandtaylor #ANN #pasadenaplayhouse #annrichards #reproductiverightsarehumanrights #lesbianculture
