THE MEMORY OF WATER is the story of three sisters who have come together for their mother’s funeral. Vi, the mother, passed away from Alzheimers at 75 and appears to Mary. The play is about relationships and how memories are shaped by our perceptions rather than actual events.

THE MEMORY OF WATER really lives up to the poetry reflected in its title. It also keeps us highly entertained for two hours and leaves us deeply touched in the end.” —NY Daily News

END OF THE RAINBOW Runs Sept. 10-19

Kim Schroeder Long as Judy Garland.

END OF THE RAINBOW
The Carnegie
Sept. 10-19
Covington Plaza Amphitheater

Directed by Alice Flanders
Music Coordinated/Band Lead by Ted Baldwin
Produced by Maggie Perrino

Cast: Kim Schroeder Long as Judy Garland, Aaron Whitehead as Anthony, Dylan Shelton as Mickey Deans & Julie Locker as Radio Interviewer

The year is 1968 and Judy Garland is set firmly on the comeback trail. The failed marriages, the suicide attempts and the addictions are all behind her. At forty-six and with new flame Mickey Deans at her side, she seems determined to carry it off and recapture her magic. But lasting happiness always eludes some people, and there was never any answer to the question with which Judy ended every show: “If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow, why, oh, why, can’t I?”

END OF THE RAINBOW is a savagely funny drama featuring a glorious ensemble of Judy Garland hits such as “The Trolley Song,” “The Man that Got Away,” and of course “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.”

Production includes adult themes and language. Not recommended for children under 13.

8/31/21 Covid-19 Policy: Patrons will be asked to practice social distancing at the outdoor venue. Seating will be spread out to follow social distancing guidelines. Hand sanitizing stations will be available and additional cleaning regimens will be in place between performances.
