JOIN US for a very special EVENING WITH THE LEGENDARY RITA MORENO. "If
You Quit, You Can't" memorializes the decades of accomplishments in
her storied career. Ms. MORENO WAS THE VERY FIRST PERFORMER TO
WIN an Oscar, an Emmy, a Tony and a Grammy. Creative diversity has
been the hallmark of Ms. MORENO'S 70-year career. She belongs to an
elite group of only 15 living performers who have won
entertainment’s grand slam of the industry's most prestigious
awards: The Oscar, The Emmy, The Tony and The Grammy. Her Oscar came
in 1962 when she starred as the Latina spitfire, Anita in _West Side
Story _for which she also won The Golden Globe. The Tony win was for
her 1975 comedic triumph as Googie Gomez in Broadway's _The Ritz.
_The Grammy was for her 1972 performance on _The Electric Company
Album_, based on the long-running children's television series. She
won not one, but two Emmys--the first for a 1977 variety appearance on
_The Muppet Show_ and the following year for a dramatic turn on _The
Rockford Files_.__
Ms. Moreno has served on The National Endowment for the Arts and as a
Commissioner for The President’s White House Fellowships. She has
served as a member of The President’s Committee on the Arts and
Humanities. Rita was also honored by her peers as the 50th recipient
of the Screen Actors Guild Life Achievement Award. We are honored to
host Ms. Moreno.
