Emily Padgett and More Set for THE BROADWAY DOLLS at Ridgefield Playhouse Tonight

Some of Broadway's hottest female stars will be together on one stage in a Glee-like singing and dancing extravaganza -- The Broadway Dolls -- at The Ridgefield Playhouse tonight, April 11, at 8:30 p.m. This show will take the audience from pop and rock 'n' roll to Broadway and beyond.

The Broadway Dolls include Hollie Howard of Hairspray, Mamma Mia and Annie Get Your Gun; Tracee Beazer of Waterbury, CT, currently in Honeymoon in Vegas, formerly in Hairspray, The Wedding Singer and Good Vibrations; Emily Padgett currently starring on Broadway as one of the Hilton sisters in Sideshow and formerly of CATS and Rock of Ages; and Heather Parcells of Chicago, Some Like It Hot and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

Featuring a roster of the most dynamic women in the Broadway community, The Broadway Dolls is a truly unique pop/cultural experience that switches gears from Brittany Spears to My Girl, on to Katy Perry. Bernard's (20 West Lane, Ridgefield) is offering a special prix-fixe menu the night of this event when tickets are presented; reservations suggested. This show is part of the Ridgefield Magazine Broadway & Cabaret Series.

In the words of The Broadway Dolls, "It's so much more than a Broadway revue. It truly is a celebration of the performing arts with live music?and dance featuring some of the most dynamic performers in New?York City, all of whom have credits starring in hit shows. For anyone who loves to experience top-notch singing and dancing of all kinds, this show is a must-see!"
