New York City
Direct from London’s West End, this critically acclaimed smash hit helmed by Terry Johnson, director of Broadway’s La Cage Aux Folles, features a star-turn performance by Olivier Award-winning actress Tracie Bennett playing Minnesota’s own international superstar Judy Garland months before her untimely death. Set in London in 1968, the play combines humor and heartbreak, and features an onstage band to accompany a few of Garland’s most memorable songs including “The Man That Got Away,” “Come Rain or Come Shine,” “The Trolley Song,” and of course “Over the Rainbow.” Critics have hailed Bennett’s performance as the stage and screen legend as “dazzling,” “unforgettable,” and “one of the greatest musical performances ever witnessed.”
