Reviews: Dayton Examiner | Dayton Most Metro |
A new two-character musical about the life and career of actress and singer Rosemary Clooney.
It is 1968 and Rosemary is a guest at Robert Kennedy’s reception and speech after a victory in the California Presidential Primary. In a few tragic moments her dear friend RFK is assassinated and Rosemary soon finds herself in the midst of a nervous breakdown.
Hospitalized in Los Angeles, Rosie and her therapist explore her life, career, and relationships as he takes on the character of all the other persons in Rosie’s life: her mother, father, husband Jose Ferrer, Frank Sinatra, her sister Betty, Bing Crosby, and others.
We learn about her past, her triumphs, her challenges, and how she manages to rise above them all. TENDERLY is a tribute to a musical legend. Ages 13 and up.
