See a preview of her new one woman show here!

Fresh on the heels of attracting a new generation of fans with her acclaimed PBS musical documentary, Mitzi Gaynor: Razzle Dazzle! The Special Years, -- Green Isle Inc. proudly announces Mitzi Gaynor’s return to the stage in all new one-woman show, RAZZLE DAZZLE! MY LIFE BEHIND THE SEQUINS.

Mitzi will bring her incomparable brand of showmanship back to the stage in this new theatrical production, a glittering multimedia one woman tour-de-force of music and memories from her show-stopping life and career. RAZZLE DAZZLE! MY LIFE BEHIND THE SEQUINS reunites the Golden Globe® nominee with the original creative team behind her acclaimed television specials and concert performances -- world renowned fashion icon Bob Mackie, director/choreographer Tony Charmoli and musical arrangers Dick DeBenedictis & Bill Dyer.

For the first time Mitzi shares personal stories, moving reminiscences and behind-the-scenes anecdotes from her life and remarkable show business career including those of starring in such classic motion pictures as There’s No Business Like Show Business, Les Girls, The Joker is Wild, making the blockbuster adaptation of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s South Pacific and performing in her Emmy®-winning television specials and nightclub & concert appearances that secured her place as an entertainment superstar.  Along with a seven piece orchestra led by musical director/pianist Ed Czach, Mitzi will perform a virtual songfest of signature musical hits from her film, television and nightclub catalog including “There’s No Business Like Show Business”, “Honey Bun” and “I Can Cook, Too”, in addition to performing a diverse slate of song selections from John Kander and Fred Ebb, Leon Redbone, Irving Berlin and Betty Comden and Adolph Green amongst others while also tackling new material from the recent Tony-winning Broadway hit The Drowsy Chaperone – all set to brand-new staging and choreography by Mr. Charmoli.

This new production scripted by Ms. Gaynor and conceived and constructed by producers Rene Reyes and Shane Rosamonda, will feature classic elements of her fabled concert performances along with video footage culled from her television, concert and film work in an all new up-to-date setting.
