In The Passion of the Crawford, Lypsinka gives audiences an evening with the legendary Miss Crawford, recreating performances of two of her favorite works of literature - "Desiderata,"Â the classic poetic declaration of what is essential to one's life and how to live peacefully and, just to prove that she hasn't lost her touch, a 'dramatic interpretation' of a text about the importance of caring for our children, written especially for her. The Passion of the Crawford also offers a live interview - one of her last public appearances - in which Miss Crawford shares with her fans the exciting details of her fabulous career, her life and her loves.
