The National Theatre Cordially invites You to Enjoy

A Night With

The Show That Cares

TWO WEEKS ONLY!
PLAYED JANUARY 21 through FEBRUARY 2, 2003

Dear Possums,
I have fallen in love with America and American audiences, so last year -- following my Broadway triumph -- I went on a theatre tour of the States, sharing my experience, hope and strength with my new “family”. My ultimate aim was to visit YOU, but let’s face it Possums, I’m human, and schlepping around America with all those heavy gold statuettes I keep winning slowed me down. Now, after a stint with my little pupil Ally McBeal, I’m ready to meet you in Washington for a night you will never forget. I’ve missed you Possums. DON’T MISS ME!
Love, Dame Edna

Bring your gladiolas, possums, and prepare to laugh yourself silly when the incomparable Dame Edna Everage takes the stage at The National Theatre. She's wild. She's wicked. She's Australia's sequin-studded superstar-advisor to royalty -- and style icon extraordinaire.

For more than four decades, Dame Edna has dazzled audiences the world over with her one-of-a-kind banter, infinite wisdom and fabulous beauty tips. Now, after her incredible Royal Tour -- for which she received a Special Tony Award for a live Theatrical Event -- she's making her long-awaited Washington debut. Discover the woman critics call "Screechingly funny!" (Miami Herald) and "The funniest woman on the planet!" (WBZ-TV, Boston).
