WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Watch Out, Possums! The Tony award-winning megastar returns to Broadway in Dame Edna: Back with a Vengeance!
Following the national success of her previous life-enhancing and much loved shows which have been buried beneath an avalanche of international awards, Dame Edna returned to her private estate in her native Australia to review the state of the world from her unique point of view. During that time she crafted her latest offering.
Created by Australian actor, author, painter and composer and racing car driver, Barry Humphries, Dame Edna is a national icon in her native Australia, as well as a housewife, talk show host, adviser to British royalty, widow, investigative journalist, guru and legend. She is joined onstage by "The Gorgeous Ednaettes," scrumptious girl dancers and "The Equally Gorgeous TestEdnarones," a dishy duo of boy dancers. Also on stage is the unconventionally handsome Master of the Dame's Musick, Wayne Barker, manipulating keyboard instruments.

The Girl From Oz -- Dame Edna -- has returned to Broadway, and with a show this riotously funny, she's going to be around for a very long time. Dame Edna (aka Barry Humphries) has the cheek of Don Rickles, the comic timing of Jackie Mason, and the womanly figure of Milton Berle. Her singular virtue, however, is that no other comedian better uses an audience. Dame Edna: Back With a Vengeance! is so interactive that, without the help of the theatergoers that she targets, the star would hardly have an act at all.
This show is the closest thing to an evening of improv that you'll find on Broadway. Though it includes some consistently funny, scripted patter about Dame Edna's three children, her[...]
