The lights of Broadway’s theatres will dim for exactly one minute at 8PM on March 25 in honour of iconic actress Elizabeth Taylor, who died on March 23 at the age of 79.

In her 70-year career, Taylor starred in more than 50 films, including Giant and Cleopatra, as well as the film versions of Tennessee Williams’ plays Suddenly Last Summer and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. She won Oscars for her roles in Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? and Butterfield 8.

Taylor made her Broadway debut as Regina Giddens in a 1981 revival of Lillian Hellman's The Little Foxes, for which she earned a Best Actress Tony Award nomination. Taylor's other Broadway credits include Private Lives (opposite ex-husband Richard Burton) and The Corn Is Green.
