Judith Ivey Will Perform At Ramapo College
(Mahwah) – Two-time Tony Award winner Judith Ivey will perform “Women on Fire,” a one-woman play, on Saturday, October 8 at 8 p.m. in the Sharp Theater on the campus of Ramapo College of New Jersey.
Ivey portrays a dozen passionate women on the brink of self-discovery, each burning with her own personal fire. These comic and dramatic monologues were created by Irene O’Garden, a poet, author and performer. The actress, known for her roles in Hurlyburly on Broadway, television’s Designing Women and the film production of Brighton Beach Memoirs, portrays an ad exec, a Midwest mom, a caregiver and a construction worker, presenting each with passion, fear, self-discovery and, shopping! Ivey explores a variety of women’s issues with sage humor.
“Women on Fire,” starring Ivey, was twice extended Off-Broadway, where it played to sold-out houses. The play was nominated for a Lortel Award for Best Solo Show.
Tickets for Judith Ivey are $25 for adults, $22 for senior citizens and $15 for youth. The Sharp Theater is located at the Angelica and Russ Berrie Center for Performing and Visual Arts on the Ramapo College campus. For more information call 201.684.7844.
This program is made possible in part by funds from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a Partner Agency of the National Endowment for the Arts.
