In 1982, Helen Gurley Brown wrote the landmark book, "Having It All," that proposed that women could in fact, "have it all" -- successful careers, children, husbands, family life, and still have time to cook dinner and do the laundry! Now almost 30 years later, in this World Premiere musical, five women -- each with her own hopes, secrets and desires -- find themselves trapped together in a boarding area at JFK airport. When delay after airport delay forces them to get to know each other, they come to find that each of them can't take flight in more ways than one. As they share their stories and intimacies, they ultimately change one another's destinations for the better, while discovering that they may in fact, be already having it all.
HAVING IT ALL was an official selection of the 2006 New York Music Theatre Festival and the 2008 National Alliance for Music Theatre Songwriters Showcase.
HAVING IT ALL has assembled an award-winning design team. The Set Design is by Stephen Gifford (Anita Bryant Died for Your Sins). The Lighting Design is by Luke Moyer (Life Could Be A Dream). The Sound Design is by Cricket S. Myers (The Marvelous Wonderettes). The Costume Design is by Ann Closs-Farley (The Pee-Wee Herman Show). The stage manager is Chris Murry.
HAVING IT ALL will preview on Saturday, February 26 at 8pm; Sunday, February 27 at 3pm; Thursday, March 3 at 8pm; Friday, March 4 at 8pm; Saturday, March 5 at 8pm ; Sunday, March 6 at 3pm; Thursday, March 10 at 8pm Friday, March 11 at 8pm and will open on Saturday, March 12 at 8pm and will run for eight weeks through Sunday, April 24 at the NoHo Arts Center, 11136 Magnolia Blvd. (at Lankershim) in North Hollywood.
