End of the Rainbow
Thu 25 Aug - Sat 03 Sep
Venue: Royal
First performed at Royal & Derngate in 2010, Olivier Award-Winning Tracie Bennett has since taken the West End by storm as Judy Garland in this
Made in Northampton co-production of
Peter Quilter’s play
End Of The Rainbow.
It’s December 1968 and Judy Garland is about to make her comeback... again. In a London hotel room with her young new fiancé at her side, Garland battles with a tornado of drugs and alcohol as she undertakes an exhausting series of concerts at the Talk of the Town to try and reclaim her crown as the greatest talent of her generation.
Despite a series of failed marriages and a wrecked Hollywood career, Judy remains a tough, compelling, remarkable woman, always armed to the teeth with her legendary razor-sharp wit.
Directed by the award-winning
Terry Johnson,
End Of The Rainbow has received five star reviews and features a breathtaking performance by Tracie Bennett, which receives standing ovations night after night.
The production, supported by a six piece onstage band, includes Garland’s most memorable songs including
The Man That Got Away, Come Rain Or Come Shine, The Trolley Song, and of course
Somewhere Over The Rainbow.
