Bucket Brigade presents Stephen Temperley’s SOUVENIR: A Fantasia on the Life of Florence Foster Jenkins, directed by Jeffrey S. Miller and featuring beloved Twin Cities performers Vanessa Gamble and Michael Pearce Donley.
Playing April 29 – May 14, 2022, at Art House North, 793 Armstrong Avenue in Saint Paul. Tickets and COVID safety related information is found at www.bucketbrigadetheater.com, or 612-547-9839.
The show is in two Acts, runs approximately 90 minutes, and includes a short intermission.
SOUVENIR celebrates the story of Florence Foster Jenkins– a wealthy society eccentric who suffered under the delusion that she was a great coloratura soprano when she was in fact incapable of producing two consecutive notes in tune. The hilarious and poignant play tells her story through the eyes of her accompanist, Cosme McMoon. Faced with her boundless confidence and certainty, Cosme comes to revise his attitude, not only towards her singing but to the very meaning of music, and indeed of friendship itself.
