About this listen
The tale opens in 1938 when the 31-year-old Hepburn is five years beyond her first Oscar-winning successes. In the middle of a career slump after a series of movie flops, she waits by the phone to hear whether she nailed the part of Scarlett in a film called Gone With the Wind. The story moves to 1983, when Parkinson's disease has left her voice shaking, her hand clutching a cane, but her eyes still shining with intelligence, wit and the wisdom that informs a long life lived to the fullest. Tea at Five touches on Hepburn's turbulent childhood, her 15 year-old brother's suicide, and her 27-year affair with Spencer Tracy.

A Bit Average
Struggled a little with tge Katherine Hepburn accent in the 2nd chapter, the slighter older voice used by Kate Mulgrew grated on me a little to much.
On stage i imagine its an excellent piece of theatre but as an audio play it lacked substance.
