William Gibson’s one-woman tour de force, Golda's Balcony, examines the history of Israel through the eyes of one of the 20th century’s most remarkable world leaders, Golda Meir.  The show was the longest-running one-woman show in Broadway history.  Actress Janet Ulrich Brooks plays the title role; Pegasus Players' Artistic Director, Alex Levy, directs.
