In New York City, star Judy Holliday lays down a series of tracks about her rise to fame amidst the politics of the 1950s. Memory and song converge as the "dumb blonde" with a genius IQ charts her experience from Greenwich Village to Broadway and beyond with notable show business alums, including Leonard Bernstein and Marilyn Monroe.
The luminous Andréa Burns (Broadway's On Your Feet and In the Heights) stars as Holliday. She's joined by Andrea Bianchi (Curvy Window), Mark Lotito (Broadway's Jersey Boys), and Jonathan Spivey (Summer and Smoke with the Transit Group).
The design team includes Tony Ferrieri (scenic design); Alan Edwards (lighting design); Michael McDonald (costume design); and Joanna Lynn Staub (sound design). The Production Stage Manager is Stephanie Clark.
