Cast:
Ruthless! The Musical features the best of Maui talent including Lina Krueger as Judy Denmark/Ginger DelMarco, Heidi Turner as Tina Denmark, Rose Roselinsky as Lita Encore, Kristi Scott as Miss Thorn/Miss Block, Dale Button as Sylvia St. Croix, and Alison Mikes as Louise/Eve.

Synopsis:
Ruthless! The Musical is the story of a naïve 1950s housewife, Judy, and her adorable but sociopathic 8-year-old daughter Tina. Encouraged by her manager, Sylvia, Tina will do anything to get the lead role in her school play - including doing away with the leading lady! Inevitably, Tina ends up spending time at a reform school for psychopathic ingénues. Judy discovers from her adoptive mother that her birth mother was a famous actress. Judy decides that she should be famous as well and becomes a Broadway diva. Inspired by The Bad Seed, All About Eve, and Gypsy, Ruthless! The Musical is..."A spoof that has enough absurd plot twists and multiple identities to fill several old movies.... The fun comes from the sheer brazenness!"-N.Y. Times

Pro-Arts, Inc. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to presenting the highest quality productions for Maui audiences.
