About This Show

The hit of The Fourth International Midtown Theatre Festival, Libby Skala’s one-woman show LiLiA!, is back for a limited engagement.

In this heart-warming tale about the journey of a remarkable woman and the connection between two kindred spirits, Libby Skala plays both herself and her indomitable grandmother. Transforming from one character to another, Ms. Skala tells the true story of the Viennese-born actress who became the first female architect in Austria, a stage star in Max Reinhardt’s theater, and finally a Hitler refugee who leaped from New York zipper factory to a career on Broadway, television and film. Portraying their special relationship, Lilia also humorously guides her granddaughter through the perilous waters of being an actress in New York and Hollywood.
