THE FITZGERALDS: A READING WITH MUSIC
Featuring acclaimed performers Stephanie Zimbalist and Alec Baldwin
A fundraising event honoring Joanne Woodward.
Marking the centennial of ๐๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐๐ณ๐ฆ๐ข๐ต ๐๐ข๐ต๐ด๐ฃ๐บ, The Fitzgeralds: A Reading with Music revisits the lives behind one of the most enduring works of American literature.
At the heart of this performance lies the extraordinary correspondence between F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald โ letters that reveal a relationship shaped by ambition, artistry, and emotional complexity. Through their own words, we encounter two singular voices whose love and conflict fueled some of the most iconic writing of the 20th century.
Directed by Stephen Hamilton, this reading features acclaimed performers Stephanie Zimbalist and Alec Baldwin, with an original live score by composer/performer, Forrest Gray, that brings new resonance to the Fitzgeraldsโ words. Poised between literature and performance, memory and music, The Fitzgeralds is a reflective tribute to the people behind the prose.
