Be it on film, on stage, or in people's living rooms every Sunday evening, Judy Garland was, and continues to be, one of the golden age of Hollywood's brightest stars. As conflicted as she was celebrated, this new play goes beyond the rainbow and explores the life of a woman destined for greatness; a woman who is as loved today as she was when she made her way along the yellow brick road. Featuring a veritable hit-list of Garland standards, performed live by a cast of twelve, Through the Mill promises to be a highlight of the Christmas calendar for both audiences new to the entertainer's extensive back catalogue in the world of film and music, as well as the true Garland aficionado.
