Liz Fuller was about to get an unexpected visit from her all-time film idol, silver screen legend Bette Davis. As it turned out, Davis went on to stay in Fuller's modest Connecticut home for 32 days, much to the dismay of Fuller's husband, writer John Fuller. … Lisa Freebairn, as the 77-year-old Davis, gives a stellar performance. Freebairn sounds like Davis, shows excellent timing and delivery with all of the cutting comments Davis delivers throughout (many at the expense of her film rival Joan Crawford), and even moves about as Davis likely did at the time, having survived a stroke. … This play works on several levels. It works for Davis' fans; for those who like to laugh at the juxtaposition of a star living in a normal household; or as a story in which a woman gets to meet and live with the woman who, as a child, she spent so much time watching and admiring." ~ Jeff Piorkowski, Cleveland.com CVLT is generously funded by Cuyahoga County residents through Cuyahoga Arts and Culture and supported by the Ohio Arts Council.
