Women On The Verge Of A Nervous Breakdown...on Broadway
There will even more unbalanced actresses on Broadway this fall, as a date has been confirmed for the opening of the stage musical version of gay director Pedro Almodóvar’s cult film Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown.
The musical is based on the popular 1988 Spanish comedy about a much put-upon soap opera actress. "Women" will begin previews October 2 before a November 4 opening at the Belasco Theater as part of Lincoln Center’s 2010-2011 season.
A workshop production of the musical featuring Salma Hayek, Jessica Biel, and Glee’s Matthew Morrison was performed last year, but the cast for the full-scale production hasn’t yet been announced.
I WILL see this. I must.
If you are not familiar with Pedro Almodóvar’s work, I BEG of you, rent the Best Foreign Film Oscar winner "All About My Mother" or "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown". Today people! Today!
That's all.
