Denise Lee:
PRESSURE MAKES
DIAMONDS
by Denise Lee & Monique Midgette
They say diamonds are forever. They say diamonds are a girl’s best friend. They say the quality of a diamond is determined by the Four C’s: color, cut, carat, and clarity. However, they also say that the process to unearth a diamond’s full beauty takes a tremendous amount of pressure. This original production will shine a bright light on a diamond’s similarities to life. Denise Lee, recently seen at Circle Theatre in The Glass Menagerie, with the help of her lively band, will touch your soul with a collection of songs from many classic artists you know and love. This new production is both a collaboration with and directed by Monique Midgette.
Run Time: 70 minutes, no intermission, concessions open before the show!
