SUMMARY
|
The Rosemary Clooney Musical An intimate musical biography chronicling the life of legendary American singer and White Christmas actress, Rosemary Clooney - from her humble beginnings in Kentucky to her Hollywood stardom. Featuring songs like, "Come On-A My House" and "Mambo Italiano", Tenderly is a remarkably personal drama that touches on her rise to fame, her personal struggles with mental health and addiction, and her triumphant comeback. |
