Just announced – the Kennedy Center’s star studded production of Follies, just ending its six week sold-out run here on June 19th, will be transferring to New York City for a limited run this summer.

The $7.3 million production of the Goldman/Sondheim Tony Award winning musical will move into the Marquis Theatre, until recently home to Frank Wildhorne’s recently shuttered Wonderland.

Exact dates, Broadway cast and ticket information will be announced shortly.

For four sold out performances in New York’s Avery Fisher Hall, a star studded cast performed Stephen Sondheim’s Company acompanied by the New York Philharmonic. The recording of that once in a lifetime event is now touring area cinemas and opens in the DC area for a limited run this week.

All four showings at Landmark E Street Cinema have sold out. There may still be tickets to be had at AFI Silver, Silver Spring, MD (5 showings, June 15 – 19.)  in Annapolis, Reston and other locations. Obviously, buy them online to be sure of a set.

Here are the nationwide listings.

Due to high box office demand, both Studio Theatre and Woolly Mammoth this week  announced extended runs.

Woolly Mammoth’s Bootycandy by Robert O’Hara now closes July 3, 2011. DCTS’ Jayne Blanchard  described it “Hilarious, tasteless and shocking, Bootycandy does for breaking taboos what the John Waters cult movie “Pink Flamingos” did for dog poo.” Buy tickets here.

Tim Treanor described it as “subtle, brilliant, precise – but best of all, it is a vehicle for an astonishing performance by the remarkable Erica Sullivan.” Audiences agreed and now David Ives’ Venus in Fur, playing at Studio Theatre, has been extended through July 10, 2011. Buy tickets here.
