Golda’s Balcony is the final work from Tony® Award-winning playwright William Gibson (The Miracle Worker, Two for the Seesaw), and an award-winning smash that, in 15 sold-out months on Broadway, set the record for the longest one-woman show in Broadway history.
It follows the trajectory of the life of Golda Meir from Russian immigrant to American schoolteacher to a leader of international politics as the fourth Prime Minister of Israel. Much of its focus is on the period surrounding the 1973 Yom Kippur War, when Israel was attacked by Egypt and Syria.
Featured in the title role is Wendy Westerwelle who has charmed audiences up and down the west coast in such shows as Rose, Soph (an evening with a red hot mama), Recovery from myself, The JAP Show, Kathy and Mo Show, 25 Questions for a Jewish mother, Becoming Dr. Ruth, and her very personal show
