Event Details

In 1907 Harriet Lane Levy, a celebrated San Francisco writer and theater critic, moved to Paris with her friend Alice B. Toklas and suddenly found herself immersed in a strange and vibrant world.

In this one woman performance, Levy (portrayed by Laura Sheppard) tells of her initiation into the Parisian lifestyle and salons of the Steins (Gertrude and brother Leo, Michael and wife Sarah) and the rivalry between Picasso and Matisse and the Paris avant-garde.
