Oscar and the Pink Lady

By Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt
Directed by Frank Dunlop
A REMARKABLE THEATRICAL EVENT!

Internationally renowned actress Rosemary Harris stars in this tour-de-force one-woman show by award-winning French author and playwright Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt. Ms. Harris, an Academy Award and seven-time Tony Award nominee, has won a Tony, multiple Emmy Awards and Golden Globe Awards. She has recently appeared in the Spiderman movie blockbusters as Aunt May.

Set in a Children’s Hospital, this funny, touching and ultimately life affirming new play is a testament to the human spirit and a celebration of the compassionate calling of those who work and volunteer in our hospitals and healthcare facilities.

Under the leadership of Artistic Director David Saint and Managing Director Mitchell Krieger, George Street Playhouse is a nationally recognized theatre, presenting an acclaimed mainstage season while providing an artistic home for established and emerging theatre artists. Founded in 1974, the Playhouse has been represented by numerous productions both on and Off Broadway – recent productions include Anne Meara's Down the Garden Paths, the Outer Critics Circle, Drama Desk and Drama League nominated production of The Spitfire Grill and the Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize winning play Proof by David Auburn which was developed at GSP during the 1999 Next Stage Series of new plays. In addition to its mainstage season, GSP's Touring Theatre features five issue-oriented productions that tours to more than 250 schools in the tri-state area, and are seen by more than 80,000 students annually.

George Street Playhouse programming is made possible in part by funds from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a partner agency of the National Endowment for the Arts, and by funds from the National Endowment for the Arts.
