Amanda Eliasch’s semi-autobiographical show, As I Like It, will be presented at West Hollywood’s Macha Theatre, December 29-January 12.
As I Like It depicts a gilded life that scales the heights of Great Britain’s art, literary, and social worlds. The play is written by and based on the life of Eliasch, and is the tale of a woman with a ravenous appetite for life and how her unbridled enthusiasm ultimately contributes to a string of failed relationships. As I Like It originated from a request by Eliasch’s estranged father for her to write a manuscript of 5,000 words by the end of a weekend.
Film and television actress Beth Broderick will star. Joining Broderick will be Natalie Salins as the opera singer and Eliasch’s son Charles Eliasch as The Devotee.
The artistic team will include Edward Bennett-Coles (director), Elizabeth Karr (producer), and Trip Haenisch (designer).
