Multi-Award-Winning actor Ed Asner gives a Tour-de-Force performance as "FDR"

Ed Asner, recipient of seven Emmy Awards ("Mary Tyler Moore Show," "Lou Grant") and 16 nominations, five Golden Globe Awards, member of the TV Academy Hall of Fame, and the voice of Carl Fredricksen in Pixar's newest film, Up, will star in the solo performance drama, FDR based upon Dore Schary's Broadway hit Sunrise at Campobello, which ran 70 weeks on Broadway.

FDR explores the life of one of America's best-loved presidents and the events and decisions that shaped a nation. This powerful play follows the iconic president as he reflects on his years in office, from inauguration to the trials of World War II.

 

Sunrise at Campobello, Dory Schary's
play depicting FDR's early battles with
polio, made its Broadway debut on
January 30, 1958. Later made into a
successful movie, the play chronicles
FDR's personal journey.

This one-man show takes us through
FDR’s White House years including
the Depression, the steps leading up to WWII and the war years. Ed Asner
shows us why this president was know as “that man in the White House,” scorned by many and admired by most.

Ed Asner is magnificent as FDR and delivers a fearless performance of this dynamic and powerful world leader.

Performances: Saturday 8 p.m.

Individual tickets are $65, $50 and $40.
