NEW YORK (Sept. 8) – Due to the overwhelming success of last season’s Drama Desk-nominated musical comedy for all ages, DEAR EDWINA, producer Daryl Roth is pleased to announce that the show will return to its home at the DR2 Kids Theatre (103 E. 15th St., NYC) for the holiday season and beyond.
Notes Daryl Roth, “We’re thrilled that DEAR EDWINA will come ‘home for the holidays’ to the DR2 Kids Theatre, and we hope that those who missed it earlier will catch the show now. Of course, we’d love to see fans of last season’s production in the audience again, too!”
From Zina Goldrich and Marcy Heisler, the team that created the critically acclaimed Junie B. Jones: The Musical, comes DEAR EDWINA, a bright, cheery and fast paced show about Edwina Spoonapple and her pals who put on shows in Edwina’s garage. A celebration of friendship and family, DEAR EDWINA instills a love of musical comedy in newcomers and delights those already hooked.
DEAR EDWINA’s plucky heroine, Edwina Spoonapple, has a special talent for giving advice, and she would do almost anything to be a part of the Kalamazoo Advice-a-palooza Festival. When a talent scout visits her hometown of Paw Paw, Michigan, Edwina – assisted by a host of quirky friends and neighbors - enthusiastically sings out her musical advice in hilarious and endearing songs about everything from party etiquette (“Frankenguest”) to the proper way to set a table (“Fork, Knife, Spoon”). At its heart, DEAR EDWINA honors learning and listening, having fun, surviving disappointment – not only giving good advice, but taking it too.
Tickets for DEAR EDWINA are priced at $39 and are available at DearEdwina.com or by calling Telecharge at 212.239.6200. Tickets may also be purchased at the DR2 box office, 103 East 15th Street, NYC. Group rates are available.
