The show that launched Bernadette Peters as a Broadway star, this delightful, funny, tongue-in-cheek love letter to Hollywood musicals of the 1930s tells the story of sweet Ruby’s journey from her small hometown to New York City to become a Broadway star. There, she meets Dick, a sailor with ambitions as a songwriter. In grand Hollywood fashion, they tap dance their way from the chorus to stardom on the deck of a passing battleship. Dames at Sea is a non-stop ride of romance, laughs, dance and musical delights.

“It’s been a year since I died.” Thus begins Maria Marten’s story of her own abuse and murder in 1827. The notorious “Red Barn Murder” and public trial sent shockwaves throughout England and continues to capture the public imagination. While the story has all the hallmarks of a classic crime drama—a missing body, a country location, a village stuck in its conventional traditions—it is not just a murder story. Told from the victim's perspective, this powerful production reveals who Maria Marten really was in an unexpectedly joyous story of women’s resilience, friendship, and reclamation.
