A Tony nominee with her “Emmies”

What an afternoon. What a privilege. What a delight. On May 3rd, I attended a Broadway performance of 33 Variations, starring Jane Fonda ‘55, with a group of Emma alums and current students. The students, pictured in this photo taken by Michael Rudd, are currently Fonda Scholars at Emma Willard. Our entire party was graciously welcomed up on the stage by Jane, after her superb performance as a terminally ill musicologist. (Fun to note that the very next morning, news of the Tony nominees broke, and 33 Variations picked up five nominations, including one for Jane.) If you want to see our entire party, go explore Jane’s blog, www.janefonda.com, which she is keeping to record her experience in the show. As you scroll through the entries, you will find a number of Emma Willard connections!
