The Return of Fraulein Maria - Performance Details
Joe's Pub at The Public Theater
December 12 - 15, 2007
"The Hills Are Alive (Ditto a Career)"
"The outcome was "Fräulein Maria," Mr. Elkins's characteristically free-associative take on "The Sound of Music," which opens at Joe's Pub on Wednesday night in its second run, after its premiere there last December.
