Written by Peter Quilter directed by Daniel Pasker, Glorious! is the story of the joyful Florence Foster Jenkins, who had a passion for singing, but a voice of disastrous proportions which left audiences crying with laughter.
The New York Times reports today that the Judy Garland tribute show, End Of The Rainbow by Peter Quilter, a play about her last months before overdosing on drugs in 1969 is aiming for a Broadway run in the Spring of 2012. A spokesperson for the production told the Times that 'the Broadway production would star the British actress Tracie Bennett, reprising her London performance as Garland. Ms. Bennett, a two-time winner of the Olivier Award (London's version of the Tony Awards) for best supporting performance in a musical, was nominated for a best actress Olivier this year for her work as Garland. 'End of the Rainbow' would be her Broadway debut.'
