Grey Gardens: A New Musical, which began previews at the Playwrights Horizons Mainstage Theater on
February 10th, will open on March 7th at 7 PM; the limited engagement is
slated to end on March 26th.
With a book by Doug Wright (I Am My Own Wife), composer Scott Frankel and lyricist Michael
Korie, also co-stars Tony Award-winner Christine
Ebersole (Steel Magnolias, 42nd Street) and Mary Louise
Wilson (The Women, Cabaret), as well as Sara Gettelfinger (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Nine), Matt Cavenaugh (Urban Cowboy), Sarah Hyland (Paper Mill Playhouse's Annie), six-time Tony Award-nominee John McMartin (Sweet Charity, Follies), Michael Potts (Lennon), two-time Tony Award-nominee Bob Stillman (Grand Hotel) and Audrey Twitchell. Tony Award-nominee Michael Greif (Rent) directs."Grey Gardens concerns the deliciously eccentric aunt and
cousin of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, who were once among the brightest
names in the pre-Camelot social register, and are now East Hampton's
most notorious recluses, living in a dilapidated 28-room mansion.
Facing an uncertain future, Edith Bouvier Beale and her adult daughter,
'Little' Edie, are forced to revisit their storied past and come to
terms with it — for better, and for worse," according to Playwrights Horizons notes.
