Souvenir

The story of pianist/composer Cosme McMoon and his 20 year relationship with socialite Florence Foster Jenkins.
Ms. Jenkins was an aspiring singer with one small problem. She couldn't sing. That, combined with her outrageous wardrobe, made her New York City Recitals and her eventual triumph at Carnegie Hall the butt of many jokes throughout the 1930's. You see, Mr. McMoon, nor the audience, ever told her she was tone deaf. Even hearing her own recordings, she heard something else. Something beautiful. It became a must-see joke every time she gave her yearly recital at the Ritz Ballroom.
Judy Kaye was hysterically funny and Donald Corren gave a wonderful take on what could have otherwise been a one-note character.
Great fun. It did not need to be a Broadway play though. Wonderful, but a little small for current Broadway ticket prices.
