Overview

In keeping with The Rehearsal Club mission to “preserve its legacy,” a national network of former residents came together to tell their stories while living at The Rehearsal Club. Spanning four decades, 1940s - 1970s, The Rehearsal Club “Cinderellas” (coined by TV Guide in the 1950s) captures New York City and Broadway history while charting the journey leading to The Rehearsal Club's incorporation in 2019.

Carol Burnett, Blythe Danner and others are recognizable, well-known RC Alums. Each talented Cinderella memoir shares their adventurous, determined, generous spirits. Similarly to those anonymous, back-up dancers who tipped their top hats during “Singular Sensation” (the finale to A Chorus Line), by the time the last page turns, you will know these women. Maybe recognize yourself? What we all do for love.


Editorial Reviews

Broadway musical star John Rubinstein

This book tells many delightful, fascinating, mostly unknown stories, by and about the women whose lives and careers were given an undeniable and important boost by living in that uplifting and supportive environment. Some are hilarious, some heart-breaking, all are charmingly remembered and written, and together provide a wonderful insight into a bygone world of inspired and hopeful artists at the outset of their lifelong professional journeys. A page-turner of the first order!”
