Just in time for the holiday season, we are getting what we need most: Nicole Kidman and Cate Blanchett, well, kinda… Today, it was announced by newly minted Forbes 30 Under 30 and Theatrely31 alum George Strus that a new developmental production of A Kidman Carol: A Gay Dementia On Australian Dames will hit New York this December. Starring Marla Mindelle and Josh Sharp, this new production by Kevin Zak will run Off Broadway at Theater 511 for 5 performances only from December 17-21, 2025.
Get into the spirit of the season ... Awards Season, that is, with this irreverent, blistering and truly bananas take on Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. On Oscars Eve 2023, brilliant actress and Hollywood Scrooge Cate Blanchett (Tár Humbug!) is visited by three different spirits of Nicole Kidman in order to learn the true meaning of Awards Season. Will she not only save her own soul but also cinema as a human art form? A Kidman Carol is a vicious, chaotic farce that sends up Tár, The Hours, Carol, The Lord of The Rings, The Undoing, To Die For, The Others, Notes on a Scandal, Blue Jasmine, Big Little Lies, and so much more from the Kidman/Blanchett canon. Ohr nohr!
In addition to Mindelle and Sharp, the cast will also feature Renée Albulario, Robi Hager, and Phillip Taratula. Tickets start at $30 and are now available at www.akidmancarol.com. Five dollars from each ticket purchased will be donated to New York Cares.
Creative team for A Kidman Carol: A Gay Dementia On Australian Dames will include costume design by Wilberth Gonzalez and Wig Design by Krystal Balleza & Will Vicari. Envoy Theatricals/Samuel Dallas will serve as general manager, Alex Dash will serve as company manager, and Ryan Gohsman will serve as Production Stage Manager, and Gracie Carleton will serve as Deck Stage Manager. Marketing and Advertising is by Regular People. A Kidman Carol is produced in association with Bryan McCaffrey.
