Jefferson Performing Arts Society is proud to present the U.S. premier of this critically acclaimed new musical direct from the British stage. Set between 1901 and 1930, Scandalous! is a compelling story that captures the spirit and passion of D.H. Lawrence the man, the writer and the lover. Lindsay will be playing the role of his wife, Frieda von Richthofen.
From Phlox Avenue to Shubert Alley?
A musical's path to New York used to be through tryouts and previews in Boston or New Haven, Conn., and then on to the Great White Way. With "Scandalous!" -- a new musical based on the life of author D.H. Lawrence -- it is altogether possible that the road to Broadway might run through Metairie.
The show, receiving its U.S. premiere this month in a Jefferson Performing Arts Society production, represents one of the biggest risks the intrepid company ever has taken. It also might turn out to be one of the biggest hits it ever has achieved.
Lindsay Hamilton co-stars as Frieda von Richthofen, Lawrence's lover and wife. In a dashing performance, Hamilton captures the passion and fiery nature of their relationship.
