News New Musical The Bobbed-Haired Bandit Will Play FringeNYC; Casting Announced The Bobbed-Haired Bandit, a new musical comedy from composer Brittany Bonney and bookwriter-lyricist Anna Marquardt, will be presented at the 15th Annual New York International Fringe Festival (FringeNYC), beginning Aug. 12 at The Bleecker Theater.

Directed and choreographed by Deborah Wolfson, The Bobbed-Haired Bandit runs through Aug. 28.

The cast includes Katlyn Carlson (Dirty Dancing national tour), Chase Burnett, Jen Eden, Tracie Franklin, Stephanie Holser, Ariana Shore, Jennifer Wren and Melissa Zimmerman.

Set in 1920s Brooklyn, the musical, according to press notes, "follows the story of Celia and Ed Cooney, who just wanted a few bucks to raise their new baby in a nice home. Their solution? Rob a grocery store. And another. And another. They never meant to go on a crime spree, but once they’re in, it’s hard to get out. An all-female ensemble plays everyone else, from their victims to the cops to the press."
