CALL FOSSE AT THE MINSKOFF

TO PREMIERE AT THE MAHAIWE PERFORMING ARTS CENTER

IN GREAT BARRINGTON

OCTOBER 15-16

 

A NEW 90-MINUTE SOLO PLAY

WRITTEN AND PERFORMED BY MIMI QUILLIN

DIRECTED BY MICHAEL BERRESSE

 

PRODUCED BY THE FABULOUS INVALID


 

The Fabulous Invalid (Jamie DuMont and Rob Russo) announced today that Call Fosse at the Minskoff, a new 90-minute solo play written and performed by Mimi Quillin, and directed by Michael Berresse, will premiere at the Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center (14 Castle St, Great Barrington, MA) on October 15-16, 2021, at 7 p.m. 


 

There are “legends” and then there are legends. In this entirely true, middle-aged coming-of-age story, dancer and actor Mimi Quillin brings audiences along with her into the inner sanctum of two of the greatest giants the theatre world has ever known: Bob Fosse and Gwen Verdon.

 

In Call Fosse at the Minskoff, Quillin recounts her experience working with Fosse and Verdon on what would be their final collaboration, investigating the life-altering effects of proximity to true greatness, and revealing all the thrills and terrors of walking the high wire on the riskiest platform in entertainment.
