Fran Lebowitz will offer sardonic social commentary on American life as filtered through her New York City sensibilities at The Ridgefield Playhouse on Saturday, February 22

FRAN LEBOWITZ FEB 22 2014 (1)

Fran Lebowitz… disapproves of virtually everything except sleep, cigarette smoking, and good furniture.

 Author, journalist, social observer, purveyor of urban cool, witty chronicler of the ”me decade” and the cultural satirist whom many call the heir to Dorothy Parker, Fran Lebowitz remains one of the foremost advocates of the Extreme Statement. She also can be seen in the current blockbuster Wolf of Wall Street! After an on-stage interview, the audience will get to grill Fran for 60 minutes at The Ridgefield Playhouse on Saturday, February 22, at 7:30 p.m. She will offer insights on timely issues such as gender, race, gay rights and the media as well as her own pet peeves. Lebowitz’s upcoming book, Progress, should be out in 2015. For tickets ($47.50), call the box office at203-438-5795 or visit online ridgefieldplayhouse.org.
