Show Notes
Actress Elizabeth McGovern is perhaps best known for her role in the British period drama, Downton Abbey.
But this month, McGovern is on stage in Chicago in an entirely different part.
In “Ava: The Secret Conversations,” McGovern plays Ava Gardner, the mega star from Hollywood’s Golden Age.
WBEZ arts reporter Courtney Kueppers recently caught up with McGovern backstage.
