Roundabout Theatre Company's (Todd Haimes, Artistic Director) limited engagement of Wishful Drinking will play its final performance on Sunday, January 17that 2:00 PM. Wishful Drinking is created and performed by Carrie Fisher and directed by Tony Taccone.

Wishful Drinking will have played 15 preview performances and 133 regular performances. Previews began on September 22nd, 2009 and opened officially on October 4th, 2009 at Studio 54 on Broadway (254 West 54th St).

Alexander V. Nichols provides the scenic, lighting and projection design.

In Wishful Drinking, Carrie Fisher recounts the true and intoxicating tale of her life as a Hollywood legend, told with the same wry wit she poured into bestsellers like Postcards from the Edge. The daughter of Eddie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds, Carrie Fisher became a cultural icon when she starred as "Princess Leia" in the first Star Wars trilogy at 19 years old. Forever changed, Carrie's life did not stay picture perfect. Fisher is the life of the party in this uproarious and sobering look at her Hollywood hangover.

Wishful Drinking plays Wednesday through Saturday evenings at 8:00PM with a Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday matinee at 2:00PM.
