Tracie Bennett stars in END OF THE RAINBOW by Peter Quilter, directed by Terry Johnson at CTG's Ahmanson Theatre in LA. The show just opened last night, March 20, also featuring Michael Cumpsty, Erik Heger and Miles Anderson. BroadwayWorld has photos from the opening night festivities below!
For diehard fans of Judy Garland, for those who adored every song she sang and every word she uttered, Peter Quilter's account of Judy's final comeback in the UK at Talk of the Town in December, 1968, called End of the Rainbow must be seen. Yes, it's darkly frank showing literally the decay of the alcoholic/drug addicted superstar whose great pain and loneliness drove her over the edge, but it retains a delicious sense of humor, Judy Garland's unique sense of humor whereby she could put herself down and everyone in the room around her, get big laughs and get away with the deprecation...and still be adulated and adored by all. Garland was iconic who delivered every performance from the bottom of her soul, and in End of the Rainbow Tracie Bennett's mesmerizing electricity dominates her portrayal, giving us the essence of the woman on and off the stage. It's uncannily brilliant!
'End of the Rainbow' opens tonight, March 20 at 8 p.m. at the Center Theatre Group/Ahmanson Theatre. Peter Quilter's acclaimed new play with music continues through April 21, 2013.
