Below, BroadwayWorld brings you an exclusive first look at the production!
Queen of 1970s confessional songwriters, Dory Previn was perhaps best known for being the woman her husband, Andre Previn, left for a considerably younger Mia Farrow. But Dory Previn was much more than a jilted wife. Stars such as Tony Bennet, Frank Sinatra, Rosemary Clooney and Doris Day included Previn's songs in their repertoire. By the 1970s, Previn found her voice in the blistering but witty confessional songs-filled with uncompromising tales of love and loneliness-that made her a cult icon.
BEWARE OF YOUNG GIRLS celebrates the little-known life (and extraordinary songbook) of this enigmatic performer, whose story remains vital even 40 years after the release of Mythical Kings and Iguanas, Previn's most successful album. As Kate Dimbleby says, "We are all 40-year old brunettes."
