GENE KELLY: THE LEGACY                          

An Evening With Patricia Ward Kelly: January 9th, 2018 at the Wilma 7pm

Legendary dancer, director and choreographer Gene Kelly brought astonishing grace and athleticism to the movies. His engaging onscreen personality is so accessible we feel like we know him. In fact, we know very little about the man who created some of the most iconic moments in film history.

Patricia Kelly, his wife and biographer, takes us behind the scenes in this unique one-woman performance and shares a deeply moving and intimate portrait of the innovative artist, with rare and familiar film clips, previously unreleased audio recordings, personal memorabilia, and insights culled from her hours of interviews and conversations with her husband.
