Queen City Theatre Company

Queen City Theatre Company is proud and honored to bring to
Charlotte the regional premiere of the Tony Award winning musical:
“Grey Gardens” with book by Pulitzer Prize winner, Doug Wright (I Am
My Own Wife), music by Scott Frankel, and lyrics by Michael Korie.

Based on the 1975 groundbreaking and cult classic documentary by
Albert and David Maysles, “Grey Gardens – The Musical” takes us on a
touching, hilarious, and often heart breaking journey into the lives of
“Big Edie” Beale and her daughter, “Little Edie” Bouvier Beale.

Director Glenn T. Griffin has gathered a stellar cast for this ground
breaking musical, starring Alyson Lowe and Polly Adkins with Billy
Ensley, Jes Dugger, Amanda Leigh Berkowitz, Karen Christensen,
Joe Ehrman-Dupre, James Lee Walker II and Beau Stroupe.

Grey Gardens – The Musical, brings to life the eccentric aunt and
cousin of Jacqueline Kenney Onassis. At one time the two women,
Edith (“Big Edie”) Bouvier Beale and her daughter Edith (“Little Edie”)
were among the brightest names on the East Hampton social register.
In 1973, they were discovered to be living in the 28 room mansion with
no running water, 52 cats, fleas, and raccoons. The musical is set in two
eras: 1941 when the women were living lives of full grandeur, and in
1973 when their lives had been reduced to near squalor.
