Peter Quilter's tragicomedy offers a glimpse into one of Judy Garland's final attempts at a comeback, hampered by the fatal cocktail of fame, stimulants, financial instability, and failed marriages. The play explores who genuinely wants to help her, who is looking out for their own interests, whether a new love can save her, and if she will sing her greatest hit Over the Rainbow one last time. The production provides a unique acting and musical opportunity for Monika Absolonová, who won the 2025 Thalia Award for this role, featuring the greatest hits of Judy Garland accompanied by a live band. The cast features Monika Absolonová as Judy Garland, Jan Nedbal as Mickey Deans, Saša Rašilov or Milan Němec as Anthony Chapman, and Petr Pěknic or Adam Kraus as the reporter, porter, and stage manager. The orchestra consists of piano and conductor Sára Bukovská or Kryštof Marek, violin Gabriela Vermelho or Ludmila Budínská, saxophones Nela Dusová, David Fárek, Martin Plachý, Jiří Šindelář, or Tomáš Hustoles, trumpet Vratislav Bartoš, Petr Beránek, or Stanislav Zeman, trombone Josef Pospíšil, Bohumil Bydžovský, or Martin Houserek, double bass Tomáš Zeman or Ondřej Štajnochr, and drums Pavel Razím or Václav Kabát.
