Before joining Curtains, Davie will play the role of Eve Harrington in Applause at Encores!, opposite two-time Tony Award winner Christine Ebersole. Last season, Davie made her Broadway debut starring opposite Ebersole as young "Little" Edie Beale in the critically acclaimed Broadway musical, Grey Gardens. Applause plays Feb. 7-10 at New York City Center.
Davie's most recent Manhattan credit is the New York City premiere of the Lynn Ahrens-Stephen Flaherty musical, The Glorious Ones. She'll be heard on that show's cast album, to be released this summer. Davie also sang on the Broadway cast album of Grey Gardens. She has appeared as a featured soloist with the Boston Pops and has a BFA in Theatre from Boston Conservatory.
Curtains, by Rupert Holmes, John Kander and Fred Ebb, based on a libretto by Peter Stone, plays the Al Hirschfeld Theatre, 302 West 45th Street.
