Upcoming Events share Directed by Drama Desk Award winner Karen Carpenter (Love, Loss, and What I Wore), Bette Davis Ain’t for Sissies returns to the Puffin Foundation with an electrifying solo performance written and performed by Jessica Sherr (Claws, Blue Bloods). Miss Davis is Back! And more relevant than ever. The show brings to life the uncompromising story of one of Hollywood’s most iconic stars. From headline-making romances with William Wyler and Howard Hughes to her infamous Oscar upset and fearless battles against the male-dominated studio system, Davis’ story is one of ambition and defiance. This updated performance also highlights Davis’ role as a trailblazer in standing up to the studio system and helping pave the way for stronger protections and rights for artists. On-screen, she portrayed complex, unapologetic women; off-screen, she fought for equal pay, creative control, and longevity in an industry that often denied women all three. By turns humorous and deeply moving, Bette Davis Ain’t for Sissies captures the enduring legacy of a woman who refused to be silenced. Fasten your seatbelts—it’s going to be a bumpy ride. – Suggested Donation: $10 BUY TICKETS below, OR call: 201-836-3499 If you cannot pay the suggested donation, please call 201-836-3499 or email aortega@puffinfoundation.org to ask for free reservation(s).
