Carol Burnett and Julie Andrews Afternoon Tea at the Geffen Back

Posted December 18, 2013

It was a lovely afternoon serving tea to Julie Andrews and Carol Burnett as they teamed up to help raise funds for the Geffen Playhouse’s Education Outreach Programs. "Expanding far beyond the theater walls, these programs impact over 22,500 seniors, veterans, low income community members and students — bringing creative experiences and artistic excellence to those who need it most."
