SUMMARY:Meet ‘Queen Elizabeth’ at the Emerson Center
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday\, March 3\, in the Emerson Center\, actress Sheryl Faye will present “Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II\,” a multimedia performance giving us a peek into the life of this amazing woman whose life embodied courage\, resilience and dedication to service. Sponsored by the American Association of University Women\, the performance begins at 2pm. Tickets\, at $40 each\, are available online from AAUWverobeach.org. \nDuring her 70-year reign\, Elizabeth II became an icon not only in the United Kingdom but around the world: She ruled the longest of any British monarch. In a world of constant change\, she was a steadying presence and a source of comfort and pride for generations of Britons\, including many who have never known their country without her. \nEnjoy a Royal Afternoon Tea\nAfter being immersed in the life of the Queen\, you can enjoy a Royal Afternoon Tea\, also at the Emerson Center\, immediately following the performance. A limited number of tickets to both the play and the tea\, at $60 each\, are available on the website AAUWverobeach.org. \nElizabeth Alexandra Mary didn’t expect to be a queen; even after her uncle\, Edward VIII\, abdicated\, she was perfectly content to continue as a princess\, while her father\, King George VI ruled. Even as a princess\, however\, her sense of responsibility was strong: At age 14\, young “Lilibet” was on the radio\, encouraging British children who had been evacuated from their London homes during the dark days of the London blitz and World War II. Five years later\, in 1945\, she trained as a driver and mechanic for the Auxiliary Territorial Service. Upon her father’s death in 1952\, she was thrust at age 25 into a role she never sought — monarch of the United Kingdom. \nHer Majesty is portrayed by Sheryl Faye\, a professional actress whose portrayals include Anne Frank\, Sally Ride\, Susan B. Anthony\, Ruth Bader Ginsburg\, Helen Keller\, Amelia Earhart\, Abigail Adams\, Eleanor Roosevelt\, Clara Barton\, Laura Ingalls Wilder. \nA graduate of Emerson College\, Faye credits her decision to include Queen Elizabeth II in her repertoire to her mother\, a longtime Anglophile. “One of the highlights of her life was when we both got to attend the Opening of Parliament in London. My Mother and I actually got to see the event from inside Parliament in The Lord’s apartment. We walked out on the balcony as the Queen pulled up in her carriage\,” says Faye. \nThe Vero Beach AAUW is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. Proceeds go toward educational scholarships\, grants and stipends for women and girls in Indian River County.
