Applause Theatre Service has learned that an all-star cast-
including Ana Gasteyer, Carolee Carmello and Adriane Lenox — will appear in an industry reading of the new musical First Wives Club Feb. 2 in Manhattan. This same cast seems set to star in the World Premiere, Broadway-Bound musical! This is very exciting news to me who happens to be a huge fan of the movie which originally starred Bette Midler, Goldie Hawn and Diane Keaton. THE FIRST WIVES CLUB is a funny, moving and empowering story based on the smash-hit movie comedy and Olivia Goldsmith's bestselling novel. Former college friends reunite at middle-age and soon discover they share the same unhappy story - their ungrateful husbands careened into midlife by dumping them for younger women. After drowning their sorrows, they decide to put their long dormant talents to use, band together, and stylishly, systematically and hilariously get even with their exes! With new music by Rock and Roll Hall of Fame legends, Holland-Dozier-Holland (Stop! In the Name of Love, It's The Same Old Song, Baby Love, and many more), book by Tony Award-winner Rupert Holmes (The Mystery of Edwin Drood, Curtains!) and direction by Francesca Zambello (Disney on Broadway's The Little Mermaid, The Guthrie Theatre's Little House on The Prairie The Musical), this glitzy new musical is destined to be the theatrical event of 2009!Call an Applause Sales Expert now to book your tickets to this out of town tryout at the Old Globe in San Diego and to book tickets for all events Worldwide at 800-451-9930
