The icon. The activist.
The woman behind the diamonds.
Back by popular demand after sold-out runs from Off-Broadway to the Edinburgh Fringe, PrideArts presents the return of the internationally acclaimed Call Me Elizabeth. This isn't just a tribute; it’s an intimate, two-act invitation into the Beverly Hills Hotel suite of Hollywood’s most legendary star as she grapples with the cost of celebrity and the call of her true purpose.
Act One (1961) Witness the formative scandals and triumphs leading up to the filming of Cleopatra.
Act Two (1985) Experience Elizabeth’s evolution as she reunites with Richard Burton and finds her greatest role yet: a fierce, tireless warrior in the fight against AIDS.
Developed in collaboration with Taylor’s own grand-nephew, dramaturg Guy Masterson, this expanded production offers a deeply authentic look at a woman who used her spotlight to change the world. Join us for a 1-hour and 45-minute journey through the life of a queen who proved that the most glittering thing about her was her heart.
