'End of the Rainbow' the acclaimed new play with music by Peter Quilter, starring two-time Olivier Award-winner and current Tony Award-nominee Tracie Bennett as Judy Garland and directed by Tony Award-winner Terry Johnson, will play at the Ahmanson, March 12 through April 21, 2013, prior to embarking on a national tour.
The setting of 'End of the Rainbow' is December 1968, and Judy Garland is about to make her comeback . . . again. In a London hotel room preparing for a series of concerts, with both her new young fianc� and her adoring accompanist, Garland struggles to get �beyond the rainbow� with her signature cocktail of talent, tenacity and razor-sharp wit. This savagely funny drama offers unique insight into the inner conflict that inspired and consumed one of the most beloved figures in American popular culture. �End of the Rainbow� features some of Garland�s most memorable songs, performed with the show-stopping gusto for which she will always be remembered.
Bennett�s remarkable performance has made her �the toast of Broadway� (New York Post) and has garnered her the 2012 Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding Actress in a Play, a 2012 Theatre World Award for Outstanding Debut Performance, along with Tony, Drama Desk and Drama League Award nominations.
Full cast, creative and dates will be announced at a later time.
