MISS AMERICA'S UGLY DAUGHTER Now Extended Through 8/26
Critical acclaim and nightly standing ovations have resulted in an extension of the new play Miss America's Ugly Daughter until Sunday, August 26 at the Broad Stage in Santa Monica.
The darkly comedic, poignant two-character solo show is about the seismic mother-daughter relationship between Bess Myerson and her only child Barra Grant, who wrote and stars in the show.
Myerson was the first and only ever Jewish Miss America. She was famous and infamous. She had it all...until she fell in love with the wrong man, and lost her reputation and a little of her mind.
The show, which opened on July 21 has received rave reviews. Curtain Up writes, "Barra Grant is beautiful, inside and out...In an exquisite one woman show, Barra Grant pays homage to her mother. And in doing so, recollects, reconciles and redeems a most complex yet loving mother-daughter relationship."
Will Call's critic echoes this enthusiasm, stating "Grant's soliloquy is spellbinding, gossipy, heartbreaking, yet always truly entertaining,"
Miss America's Ugly Daughter will be performed Friday and Saturday evenings at 8 and in Sunday matinees at 3. The show is playing at the Edye Stage of the Broad Theatre, 1310 11th Street, Santa Monica. Tickets are $55.
