Stage and screen veteran Polly Draper will star in
Bay Street Theatre‘s American premiere of Geraldine Aron’s My Brilliant Divorce (May 29-June 24), to be directed by Matt McGrath.
The solo piece focuses on American ex-pat Angelam whose irritatingly round-headed British husband takes off. She’s left to cope with a disapproving mother, a shifty attorney, and a bad case of hypochondria.
Next will be a 20-year revival of Joe Pintauro’s Men’s Lives (July 3-29), based on the book of the same name by Peter Matthiessen. Harris Yulin will direct.
Lillias White will star in the title role of the world premiere musical, Big Maybelle: Soul of the Blues (August 7 – September 2), written and directed by Paul Levine. This bio-musical is about the legendary blues singer Maybelle Smith.
