Eden Espinosa, who is currently playing the green-faced, misunderstood Elphaba in the Los Angeles production of Wicked, will go it solo Monday nights beginning Dec. 15.
Espinosa will perform in concert at the Upright Cabaret at Mark's Restaurant Mondays, Dec. 15, 22 and 29, 2008, and Jan. 5, 2009. Show time each night is 9 PM.
Eden Espinosa — Live will feature direction by Broadway favorite Billy Porter and musical direction by Espinosa's former high school show choir director Trennie Garza.
Eden Espinosa made her Broadway debut covering the roles of Elphaba and Nessarose in Stephen Schwartz's Wicked. She eventually assumed the role of Elphaba on Broadway and also opened the sit-down production of Wicked in Los Angeles. Espinosa also played the role of Brooklyn — a part she created at the Denver Civic Theatre — in the musical of the same name at the Schoenfeld Theatre. She played Maureen in the final cast of Broadway's Rent and was also seen in the Reprise staging of Flora, the Red Menace.
Upright Cabaret at Mark's Restaurant — produced/hosted by Chris Isaacson and Shane Scheel — is located at 861 N. La Cienega Blvd. in West Hollywood, CA. For tickets, priced $15-$25, call (310) 652-5252 or visit www.uprightcabaret.com/events.
