An Evening with Eden Espinosa, November 13 at 8:00 pm, is the next installment of the Holmdel Theatre Company’s 2021 Broadway at the Barn series.
Most recognized for her critically acclaimed portrayal of Elphaba in Wicked (Broadway, LA, and San Francisco), Broadway icon Espinosa makes her Holmdel debut in what promises to be an intimate, laid back, and playful event.
Inspired by the energy of the new decade and post pandemic – Espinosa has decided to shake things up and try things she’s never done before. Espinosa will be taking requests and encouraging spontaneous moments and off-the-cuff stories. Audiences can be sure to experience something different. Featuring songs from both of her albums, Broadway songs, pop and rock covers, songs she’s never sung before and more… Eden’s show is a conversation in her living room with the added value of a concert experience.
In addition to Wicked, Espinosa is also known for originating the title role in Brooklyn (Drama League Award nomination), playing Maureen in the closing Broadway cast of RENT, and playing Trina in the most recent Broadway national tour of The Falsettos. She recently originated the role of Tamara in the world premiere of Lempicka at Williamstown Theatre Festival, directed by Tony winner Rachel Chavkin (Hadestown).
“I am over the moon to share such a phenomenal talent such as Eden with Holmdel audiences,” said Holmdel Theatre Company Executive Director Colleen Cook. “This evening of entertainment will be a true one-of-a-kind experience and I’m so grateful Eden has chosen Holmdel to present it.”
This performance will be a live, in-person full capacity event INSIDE the Duncan Smith Theatre.
