Sheridan Harbridge stars. Simon Corfield, Garth Holcombe and Basil Hogios are featured in the cast. Performances begin tonight, July 21, and BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

Paris, 1847. SONGS FOR THE FALLEN takes you through the extraordinary life of Marie Duplessis - courtesan, party girl, liar, and legend - from desperate poverty to her meteoric rise as the most notorious woman in France. Part vaudeville, part cabaret, part MTV-goes-Baroque, it is the wild and hilarious tale of a woman who knew one thing: good girls don't make history. The unbelievable tale that inspired The Lady of the Camellias, La Traviata, and Moulin Rouge!, SONGS FOR THE FALLEN is an invitation to the decadent final party of the real-life woman.

The production features set design by Michael Hankin, costume design by Lisa Mimmocchi, lighting design by Alex Berlage, and choreography by Shane Anthony. Alex Berlage is the Stage Manager.

Performances run Tuesday, July 21 at 8:00 pm, Thursday, July 23 at 9:00 pm, Friday, July 24 at 12:00 pm, Saturday, July 25 at 1:00 pm, Sunday, July 26 at 9:00 pm, and Monday, July 27 at 12:00 pm. Theater 3 is located at 311 West 43rd Street (between 8th and 9th Avenues). For tickets and information, call (212) 352-3101 or visit nymf.org/songsforthefallen.
