The Broad Stage to Present 13 THINGS ABOUT ED CARPOLOTTI

By:

Book, music, and lyrics by Barry Kleinbort

Based on the play by Jeffrey Hatcher

Starring Penny Fuller

Virginia Carpolotti is a devoted widow with loving memories of her recently-deceased husband. Though her love endures, her confidence in him flounders as one shady character after another comes calling for the debt that Ed put in her name, and things really heat up when a mysterious $1 million ransom note appears. A delightful comic musical featuring Tony Award-nominee Penny Fuller.

*Contains adult language.

Theater at The Broad Stage made possible in part by a generous gift from Laurie and Bill Benenson.
