Judy Speaks (Gumm's Last Tape)

This was the original stage production of a one-woman show about Judy Garland, (written by and starring Mary Birdsong). It was performed at the PSNBC theatre space (in NYC down in SOHO), and later went on to be performed at much critical acclaim at HBO's Aspen Comedy Festival, and later at Ars Nova Theatre in NYC. The version of the show in this clip was directed by Julie Kramer, and featured puppets designed by Lake Simons. Mary had a lot of help from Andy Corren and Lance Werth as well.
