Elaine Stritch Is Giving Up On New York

The 88-year-old Broadway legend is doing one last show at the Carlyle Hotel, where she has been a longtime resident, and moving home to Michigan. “I’m just sick of the competition in New York, the feeling that I always have to rehearse to keep up my performance. I don’t feel like rehearsing, even though it should be my favorite thing in the world to do.”
