(HOLMDEL, NJ) -- Holmdel Theatre Company presents Tony winner and Grammy nominee Lena Hall in her new production, The Show Goes On. The performance will take place on Saturday, May 4, 2024 at 8:00pm in the Duncan Smith Theater.
The new show, co-written and directed by long-time collaborator Stephen Amato, chronicles Hall’s fascinating career highlights through the harrowing, hilarious, and often deadly mishaps that accompanied her experience on productions like Hedwig and the Angry Inch (for which she won a Tony Award), Kinky Boots, and Snowpiercer. The show promises to deliver all of Hall’s trademark songs, lots of laughter, and the heartfelt unabashed storytelling she has become known for.
Tickets are $55 and available for purchase online. All seating is general seating. Doors open approximately 30 minutes prior to show time.
Colleen Cook, Executive Director of Holmdel Theatre Company, is delighted to welcome Hall to the incredible list of talent that has performed at the theatre.
“When I created the Broadway at the Barn series nearly five years ago, I couldn’t have imagined it would expand into the incredible cabaret series it is today with some of Broadway’s best talent,” she said. “I’m excited to have Lena and her band bring a new, rock edge to the barn.”
The Broadway at the Barn series was created by Cook in June 2019 with the intention of bringing the best of Broadway to New Jersey for a night. The series kicked off with Tony Award Winner Alice Ripley. Since its inception, the series has featured performances from Broadway’s finest including Betsy Wolfe, Caissie Levy, Eden Espinosa, Jessica Vosk, Laura Bell Bundy, and more.
Hall received widespread critical acclaim for her performance of the title role in the feature film Becks (winner of the U.S. Fiction Award at the L.A. Film Festival). Hall starred as Miss Audrey in the TNT hit sci-fi drama Snowpiercer for four seasons alongside Academy Award winner Jennifer Connelly and has guest starred on HBO’s Girls, Amazon Prime’s Good Girls Revolt, and Paramount Plus’ Evil.
Lena’s other solo musical revues Sin & Salvation (Cafe Carlyle), Art Of The Audition (Cafe Carlyle), and The Villa Satori: Growing up Haight Ashbury, all played sold-out shows and received rave reviews. Her solo albums and Obsessed series can be downloaded on all streaming platforms.
