Nora Ephron and Delia Ephron's intimate collection of vignettes and monologues is based on the best-selling book of the same name by Ilene Beckerman, as well as on the recollections of the Ephrons' friends. Like the book, this funny and poignant theatrical event uses clothing and accessories and the memories they trigger to tell stories that all women can relate to. "Enthralling! You’ll have such a good time," raves WOR’s Joan Hamburg, while syndicated columnist Liz Smith simply states, "This is an evening that goes directly to the heart, soul and vanity of every woman, young or old." Directed by Karen Carpenter, the production features New York’s most exciting all-star rotating cast, who will perform the piece in four-week cycles.
