In a career spanning over half a century, Katharine Hepburn made history as an icon of stage, screen and style. Kate, the Unexamined Life takes a more intimate look at the Hollywood legend, luminously channeled by Janis Stevens in this one-woman show. Playwright Rick Foster wrote the role with his longtime collaborator in mind, and Stevens has since performed Kate at theaters around the country to rave reviews. Set on New Year’s Eve of 1999, the play captures Hepburn at 92—four years from the end of her life—reflecting on the pinnacles and struggles of her career, her loves, and her legacy.
