Can't remember a thread for this show:
End of the Rainbow
Starring Caroline O'Connor
Set in 1968 in London's Ritz Hotel, Peter Quilter's stunning play charts the tumultuous final months of Garland's life and her complicated relationships with fifth husband Mickey Deans, her devoted piano accompanist Anthony Chapman and the fans that adored her.
The play brilliantly weaves the humour and heart-breaking emotion of Garland's life off-stage with a selection of her most memorable songs, sensationally performed by Caroline O'Connor and a live band. O’Connor’s powerful and deeply moving interpretation of Garland has truly captivated audiences.
“An unmissable theatrical event” SYDNEY MORNING HERALD
“Wow…five stars” THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH
"O'Connor is so perfect in this role. She sings it gloriously... a great star. This show will go far." THE AUSTRALIAN
Caroline O’Connor’s name has become synonymous with musical theatre excellence both in Australia and overseas. Twice nominated for an Olivier Award for roles in the West End, O'Connor made a huge impact with Australian audiences while playing Velma Kelly in Chicago, a role she then repeated on Broadway. She came to the attention of the world with her unforgettable appearances in the films Moulin Rouge and De-Lovely.
End of the Rainbow features all of Judy Garland's most famous songs including Get Happy, The Trolley Song, Come Rain or Come Shine and of course, Over the Rainbow.
