Elizabeth Taylor and Lillian Hellman are shown during the curtain call for "The Little Foxes" at the Ahmanson Theatre on September 27, 1981. The image was later used in the newspaper, with Hellman cropped out, when Taylor starred opposite Richard Burton in a production of Noel Coward's "Private Lives" at the Wilshire Theatre (later the Saban Theatre) Photograph caption dated October 13, 1983 reads, "Elizabeth Taylor ... her dressing room is mundane." The caption referencing that unlike Taylor's dressing room at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre in Manhattan, her dressing room at the Wilshire was not redone for the run due to space limitations.
