Elsa Lanchester, best known today as the iconic Bride of Frankenstein, was twice-Oscar nominated, appearing in such films as Mary Poppins, Witness for the Prosecution, Murder By Death, etc. Off-screen, she was married to the brilliant gay actor Charles Laughton for 30+ years. ELSA LANCHESTER: SHE’S ALIVE! reimagines the bawdy cabaret/nightclub act that Lanchester toured with late in life -- including some of the original ribald songs she performed -- mixed with a dash of backstage dish about her unconventional life. Written and performed by Charlotte Booker, Directed by Joe Kinosian, Produced by Aislinn Frantz, Featuring Mark Nutter at the piano. www.elsalanchestershow.com
