Just Jim Dale at the Laura Pels Theatre
The Roundabout Theatre Company will present Jim Dale in his solo show Just Jim Dale, directed by Richard Maltby, Jr, opening at the Laura Pels Theatre on 12 Jun 2014, following previews rom 15 May 2014, and running through to 10 Aug 2014.
The Roundabout's previously announced production of 'Cutie & Bear,' by Bekah Brunsetter, has been postponed.
In Just Jim Dale, Dale recounts an unequaled lifetime in the theater and myriad irresistible showbiz tales - from a childhood performing on the British Music Hall stage, through his many Broadway triumphs in 'Scapino,' 'Barnum' and 'Me and My Girl,' to his uproarious experiences narrating all seven Harry Potter audiobooks.
The press notes descrine the show as, "Candid and intimate, Just Jim Dale is an unforgettable collection of stories from Jim's breadth of theatrical work and beloved songs, including 'The Colors of My Life,' 'The Lambeth Walk' and 'Georgy Girl.'"
Roundabout has a long relationship with Jim Dale, including 'Privates on Parade,' the 1985 Tony Award winning production of 'Joe Egg,' 'The Threepenny Opera' and most recently, 'The Road to Mecca.'
The creative team for Just Jim Dale will also feature Mark York (pianist and co-arranger), Aaron Gandy (music direction by co-arranger), Anna Louizos (sets), Rui Rita (lights) and Carl Casella (sound).
