Ed Dixon's new musical will now close March 12, according to Smarttix.com. The production began previews Feb. 1 and officially opened Feb. 14.
Fanny Hill features direction by James Brennan with musical direction by Stan Tucker. The cast includes Nancy Anderson, Patti Allison, David Cromwell, Michael J. Farina, Gina Ferrall, Adam Monley, Marla Schaffel (who recently replaced Emily Skinner, who departed the production after an injury), Christianne Tisdale and Tony Yazbeck.
The creative team also includes Michael Bottari and Ronald Case (scenic and costume design) and Phil Monat (lighting design).
Fanny Hill is based on the John Cleland novel and, according to press notes, is "the story of a beautiful but poor country girl who travels to London to make her fortune and ends up making a great deal more. . . the army, the navy and most of Parliament! In the face of big city trials and tribulations, our indefatigable heroine ends up giving new meaning to the expression 'making it' when she becomes the foremost practitioner of the world's oldest profession."
