A true pioneer comes to Broadway at Lincoln Center. Ann is an intimate, no-holds-barred portrait of Ann Richards, the legendary late Governor of Texas.

This inspiring and hilarious new play brings us face to face with a complex, colorful and captivating character bigger than the state from which she hailed. Written and performed by Emmy® Award winner Holland Taylor (Two and a Half Men), Ann takes a revealing look at the impassioned woman who dedicated her life to enriching the lives of her constituents, friends and family. 

After playing throughout Texas to sold-out audiences, Ann went on to win critical acclaim both in Chicago and at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC.before coming to Lincoln Center's Vivian Beaumont Theater in a production directed by Benjamin Endsley Klein (resident director of War Horse).

Reviews

  • To put it as the plain-talking Richards might, this one-dynamo show — Ms. Taylor is the lone cast member — is neither a shapely work of drama nor a deeply probing character study. But admirers of Richards probably won’t give a darn...In a Broadway season .... Ms. Taylor’s lively, funny, humane Ann Richards looks mighty formidable.
  • The estimable Holland Taylor has not simply found the role of her career in former Texas governor Ann Richards; she’s written it as well, after doing impressively extensive research...Taylor’s witty, sharp-eyed script is sufficiently compelling to serve for this entertaining solo show at Lincoln Center’s Vivian Beaumont Theater. Ann is a large enough character to fill the Beaumont’s vastness, and Taylor lays her out there, warts and all, with relish and consummate skill.
