By: BWW News Desk Oct. 23, 2006
The new Off-Broadway musical Mimi le Duck will now open on November 6th.
Originally scheduled to open at New World Stages on October 31st, the show's opening night was pushed back by six days due to the addition of a new song for star Eartha Kitt, as well to revisions.
Mimi le Duck will star Kitt (Nine, The Wild Party) and />Annie Golden (The Full Monty, Assassins), as well as Tom Aldredge, />Candy Buckley, />Robert DuSold, />Allen Fitzpatrick, />Ken Jennings, and Marcus Neville.
Kitt will play a Parisian torch singer in the show, while Golden--who was previously seen in the show in 2004 when it played the Adirondack Theater and New York International Fringe festivals--will take on the title role of Miriam, "a discontented Mormon housewife from Ketchum, Idaho, who, in a moment of desperate inspiration (and a visit from the ghost of Ernest Hemingway), packs her bags and moves to Paris, leaving behind her husband and her career as a duck painter for QVC," according to New World Stages notes.
