"Excellent and pure perfection. TRULY ASTONISHING!" - Albert Maysles (director of Grey Gardens)

"Jeffrey Johnson's "Little Edie Beale" is Flawless!" - Sandra Bernhard

Jeffrey "has channeled Little Edie AS IF HE KNEW HER. This show is so close to being in the company of Little Edie. This one of a kind performance reunites me with my friend." - Jerry Torre (the Marble Faun)

"Jeffrey Johnson skillfully, unsentimentally and yet with compassionate insight, explores a lost chapter of the ever fascinating Edie Beale saga." - Charles Busch (Tony nominated playwright and star of Die, Mommie, Die! and Vampire Lesbians of Sodom)

"Little Edie" Beale, of Grey Gardens fame , performed a cabaret act at Reno Sweeney in New York City over the New Years week of 1978. Gerald Duval, Edie's producer during the time of her appearance at Reno Sweeney has re-created the essence of those magical nights using dialogue, songs, and text from the historic event resulting in a not-to-be-missed, intimate evening of theatre.

Enjoy, experience, and witness what happened when Edie Beale was LIVE at Reno Sweeney.
