Skycity theatre PRESENTS END OF THE RAINBOW


skycity theatre PRESENTS END OF THE RAINBOW

From 8 to 30 November, SKYCITY Theatre proudly presents Auckland Theatre Company’s season of End of the Rainbow.

The on-stage phenomenon charts the final months of Judy Garland’s tumultuous life as she struggles to set herself on the comeback trail and secure her place as one of the world’s greatest and most idolised entertainers.

Set in 1968 in London’s Ritz Hotel, Peter Quilter’s play is a witty and affectionate comedy infused with the paradoxes and melancholy of stardom. It features a glorious ensemble of Garland’s most famous hits including C’mon Get Happy, You Made Me Love You, Come Rain Or Come Shine and, of course, Somewhere Over the Rainbow.

Auckland-born, internationally acclaimed actress Ellie Smith plays Judy Garland in the major hit that is rekindling memories of Garland fever that swept the world in the 1940s and 50s. This is a theatrical event not to be missed.

Make a night of it with a SKYCITY Theatre-dining package. Starting from just $59, packages include tickets to the unforgettable show and dinner at one of the five SKYCITY restaurants, Ming Court, Fortuna, Orbit, Observatory, or dine.

For more information, including pricing and ticket availability, contact Ticketek on (09) 307 5000 or SKYCITY on (09) 363 6000. ENDS
