Meryl Streep along with husband Don Gummer gets bombarded by fans outside the Eugene O’Neill Theater where she was honored with the prestigious Monte Cristo Award Monday night.
The superstar actress, a graduate of Yale Drama School, thought of the gala as a sort of homecoming and told the media outside the Edison Ballroom,“I’m glad to see some old friends and celebrate this wonderful theater — it’s a home for new playwrights, writers, musicians, it’s a rare sort of conservatory for new talent and ideas.”
