Frank Sinatra called Judy “the most important singer of the twentieth century.” No small praise coming from such a legend. But Beyond the Rainbow: Garland at Carnegie Hall is not only the story of a great singer, but of a child actor turned Hollywood star who captivated a nation with her incredible talent, roller-coaster life, and in the end a shocking and tragic death. Playwright William Randall Beard paints a portrait of survival and celebration: “I wanted to put a human face on the public image,” said Beard. “The Carnegie Hall performance was a quintessential moment of triumph for Judy Garland. The songs and stories bring to life some of the highlights (and low points) of her journey from being a young girl in Grand Rapids, Minnesota to being an international star in New York City.” Beyond the Rainbow: Garland at Carnegie Hall is literally the performance of a lifetime featuring Jody Briskey, one of the nation’s foremost interpreters of Judy Garland’s distinctive style, singing 25 of Garland’s greatest hits. She is joined on stage by Elena Glass, playing the Judy of memories along with Cathleen Fuller, Norah Long, Shad Olsen, Adam Whisner and Peter Moore who play the various significant characters in Judy’s life. “Randy has woven Judy’s life story into the legendary concert now almost 60 years removed,” said Ron Peluso, History Theatre’s artistic director. “The show reveals the power of her talent and the fragile nature of her being.” Beyond the Rainbow: Garland at Carnegie Hall was originally commissioned by History Theatre and premiered in 2005. Beyond the Rainbow has played in more than 25 regional theaters across the nation, and now HERstory Theatre will revisit and refresh this History Theatre Classic with a few new twists, including a sparkling pair of "young Judys" and more of Garland's greatest hits and choreography from some of her most famous movies. IVEY Award-winner Jody Briskey returns as Garland, along with Peter Moore, Norah Long & Cathy Fuller who will be joined by a handful of bright young newcomers. The show then traveled down to Florida where it played runs at two different theaters. Both Jody Briskey and Norah Long were nominated for Best Actor in a Musical by the prestigious Carbonell Awards; and the play was nominated for Best New Musical and Best Direction. Beyond the Rainbow will again be directed by Ron Peluso, with music arrangements and direction by David Lohman, choreography by Jan Puffer, scenic design by Kate Sutton-Johnson, costume design by E. Amy Hill, lighting design by Chris Johnson, properties design by Kirby Moore, and stage managed by Wayne Hendricks. Starring Jody Briskey as Judy Garland at Carnegie Hall, and Elena Glass as Judy Garland in memories; Nicola Wahl and Lilliam Carlson as young Judys with the ensemble of Cathleen Fuller, Norah Long, Shad Olsen, Adam Whisner and Peter Moore.

This thesis paper, as well as·the accompanying recital, delves into the topic of The Great American Songbook Through the Lens of Judy Garland. The Great American Songbook is a collection of American standard repertoire from the late nineteenth century to the middle of the twentieth. Judy Garland in particular is an exemplary performer of this period; her life parallels the troubles and careers of many other performers in this era. By exploring and performing songs that Garland performed during her career, this paper relates the history of American music to the life of the acclaimed Judy Garland. Acknowledgments I would like to thank Dr. Jon Truitt for the guidance, insight, advice, and training he has provided me with throughout this project and these past four years. His help with the many performance endeavors of my collegiate career has been invaluable. I would also like to thank my mom and dad for inspiring a curiosity and interest in music at a young age. Lastly, thank you to Julian for always listening with kind and encouraging ears. Process Analysis Statement Recitals, concerts, and cabarets are important events in a music educator's profession. These are the culmination of unseen efforts rehearsing music, planning logistics, and organizing personnel.

  • GARLAND at the GROVE **** the CD DEBUT Of
    **** GARLAND AT THE GROVE **** The CD DEBUT Of JUDY GARLAND’S FIRST LIVE ALBUM -- Containing ALL of Garland’s Songs From The Evening, FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER -- In Honor of the 50th ANNIVERSARY of its 1958 Recording Date DRG Records proudly announces the CD debut of the very first professionally-preserved Judy Garland concert recording -- Her first official and legitimate “live” album, GARLAND AT THE GROVE. Every song Judy sang that night is being presented for the first time ever on one release, as the original LP deleted three songs. Those missing songs and all of the others have now been Digitally Remixed, Remastered and Restored in glorious 24-bit stereo sound here, from the original 3-track tapes made on that historic night. This CD release marks the 50th Anniversary of the year the album was recorded, 1958. GARLAND AT THE GROVE was recorded on the closing night of Judy’s July 23rd-August 5th, 1958, 2-week engagement at the famed Cocoanut Grove, in Los Angeles, CA. Her label, Capitol Records, dispatched its remote recorders to capture Garland’s performance using the then-new multitrack stereo sound. Yet it has taken nearly 50 years for the world to finally hear her entire nightclub act -- From the time Judy makes her entrance, to the post-performance announcement that the evening was recorded for an album, every second of tape is included here: All 13 songs are at last on this one CD. The songs range from the old (Judy’s movie masterpieces "The Trolley Song," "”You Made Me Love You,” “After You've Gone," and "Over The Rainbow") to newer songs she'd just cut for Capitol ("Day In, Day Out" "I Can't Give You Anything But Love," and "Do It Again"), to songs that had either recently become concert stables or would be repeated on her later TV series ("Rock- a-bye Your Baby," and a sizzling "When The Sun Comes Out”).
