Grey Gardens:

Grey Gardens is a new musical based on the Maysles Brothers' documentary film of the same name. The story focuses on the reclusive Edith Bouvier Beale and her daughter, "Little" Edie, the real life aunt and cousin of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. The following description is from the press release: "Grey Gardens concerns both the deliciously eccentric (and real-life) aunt and cousin of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, who were once among the brightest names in the pre-Camelot social register, but became East Hampton's most notorious recluses, living in a dilapidated 28-room mansion. Set in two eras-in 1941 when the estate was in its prime and in 1973 when it was reduced to squalor-the musical tells the alternatively hilarious and heartbreaking story of two indomitable individuals.
