DeJesus — who appears in the new film "Camp" — will join Brinberg Nov. 28, and Mamma Mia!'s Barrett Foa will make an appearance Nov. 29. Brinberg has labeled his latest tribute to Academy Award-winning actress Barbra Streisand "Second Hand Rose on Second Avenue." Simply Barbra will play Mama Rose's Nov. 14, 15, 21, 28 and 29.
