'Never Heard of Her: The Bridget Beirne Story' Comes To Cape Cod

FALMOUTH, MA — Art Lab, in collaboration with College Light Opera Company, will present "Never Heard of Her: The Bridget Beirne Story" at 7 p.m. on Friday and Saturday at Lucas Hall in West Falmouth.

The event features award-winning actor Bridget Beirne and Tom Frey at the piano. General admission tickets are $35 and are currently on sale here.

In a description of the work, Art Lab said:

"When everyone from teachers to directors to critics to the local parish priest says you’re going to be a star, what happens when you’re… well… not? Through stories from a long career on stages in New York City and around the country, and with a song list of everything from classic rock to Broadway to current pop hits, Bridget Beirne tells you what it’s like to be just another actor in the trenches who was told she’d be a star. Featuring Beirne’s real-life partner, Tom Frey, on the piano, this evening is for anyone who’s been on the long and winding road to self-validation and all the 'ish' it can bring."

Art Lab’s Meg Fofonoff, who splits time between New York City and Cape Cod said there "is no role [Beirne] can't take on with the utmost brilliance and grace."
