From the author and producers of Girls Night: The Musical comes a new show that continues the party! GIRL TALK: THE MUSICAL is fun, fabulous and everything female. This latest Girls Night musical experience was conceived by Tim Flaherty and is written by Louise Roche (author of Girls Night:The Musical), Tim Flaherty (Producer) and Sonya Carter (Director). Bound to get the ladies on their feet and dancing in the aisles, GIRL TALK: THE MUSICAL makes its Philadelphia premiere Nov. 2 - 21 at the Kimmel Center's Innovation Studio.

Tickets at $49 are on sale now at the Kimmel Center box office, Broad & Spruce Sts. (open daily 10 am to 6 pm), by calling 215-731-3333, or online at kimmelcenter.org. Group discounts of 15 or more are available by calling 215-790-5883.

Performances include: Tuesday & Saturday evenings at 7:00 pm; Wednesday - Friday evenings at 8:00 pm; Sunday matinees at 3:00 pm. No performances are scheduled Nov. 9 - 14.

Following in the footsteps of Girls Night:The Musical, GIRL TALK: THE MUSICAL features hit songs from some of today's leading female recording artists including Beyonce, Carrie Underwood, Jennifer Lopez and Gretchen Wilson to name a few. This latest Girls Night musical incarnation is another raucous celebration of everything that is female.

After 10 years the radio show ‘Girl Talk' must end and the girls who host the show are going out in style! The two sparring hosts, their favorite ‘ guest' sex therapist and the shows' neurotic producer quickly discover that men and jobs can come and go, but girlfriends are forever.

The success of Girls Night---which played Off-Broadway to sold-out houses and is earning rave reviews touring across North America--- prompted New York producer & president of Entertainment Events, Inc. Tim Flaherty to conceive the GIRL TALK idea and convinced author Louise Roche to write the new production. "We thought of ‘Girl Talk' as a way to continue the party that people were having at ‘Girls Night," explained Flaherty. Kimmel Center, Inc., a charitable, not-for-profit organization, owns, manages, supports and maintains The Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts, which includes Verizon Hall, Perelman Theater, Innovation Studio and the Merck Arts Education Center. Kimmel Center, Inc. also manages the Academy of Music, owned by the Philadelphia Orchestra Association, and the University of the Arts Merriam Theater.
