Judy Kaye will reprise her Tony Award-nominated role as singing socialite Florence Foster Jenkins and Donald Corren will once again play accompanist Cosme McMoon in Vivian Matalon's production of Steven Temperley's two-character play Souvenir at Baltimore's CENTERSTAGE Theater, April 24-May 24. The production replaces the previously announced The Understudy by Theresa Rebeck.

Kaye has played the role of Jenkins in numerous productions, including on Broadway, and she will perform the show at San Francisco's American Conservatory Theater, February 13-March 15.

Kaye won the Tony Award for her performance as Carlotta in The Phantom of the Opera. Her many other notable stage credits include the Broadway production of Mamma Mia! and the national tour of Sweeney Todd.
