Fresh off her 1961 Academy Awards triumph and a recent brush with death, Elizabeth Taylor is struggling with her hardest role yet: herself. Through an intimate conversation with her biographer, CALL ME ELIZABETH examines the movie star’s early life, career, and loves as she grapples with the culture of celebrity and her place as Hollywood’s brightest star. The critically acclaimed production, starring Kayla Boye and directed by Michael Weber, returns to Chicago following a sold-out international tour.
