Elaine Stritch

Stage and screen legend Elaine Stritch moved back to Michigan a year ago – but she'll return to NYC for a rare public talk at 92nd Street Y.

Stritch will discuss her extraordinary life and career with director Chiemi Karasawa, whose new film Elaine Stritch: Shoot Me, features the uncompromising Tony and Emmy Award winner. The evening includes clips from the new film, which features Stritch on and off stage via archival footage and intimate cinema vérité, candid reflections that are punctuated with photographs from Stritch’s personal collection, and words from friends, including Alec Baldwin, Hal Prince, George C. Wolfe, Nathan Lane, Cherry Jones, Tina Fey, James Gandolfini and John Turturro.
