'A Friend of Dorothy' 2002 (Our original version)
The legend of Judy Garland.

This is the original version of the show, which tells the story of Judy Garland, through other people's recollections of her life. It contrasts the magic and innocence of her early role as Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz with the increasing drug-taking and desperation of the screen idol's later years.

This one-women show was performed by Laura Sydonie and produced by Andy Beardmore.

Bath Chronicle.
'A friend of Dorothy...both emotionally intimate and intense'


La Provence, Avignon.
'This unique actress stamps her presence on the piece taking us through a myriad of emotions and expressions'


The Stage.
'a dazzling array of voices and gestures....splendidly spirited and utterly enthralling'


3 Weeks, Edinburgh.
'The poise of this one women tour de force is astonishing.......intense and glitteringly brittle'
