"Kidding on the Square" is a vintage evening of  told from the perspective of a modern girl. Drawing from her work on stage and screen, actress and singer Emily Bergl creates a variety of colorful characters that bring the elegant melodies of the 1920's and 30's to life.

Audiences are transported to a unique world that blends classic hits from Noel Coward to Fats Waller with modern favorites from Madonna to the Scissor Sisters. "Kidding on the Square" is a cabaret for anyone who feels nostalgia for more glamorous days gone by, or simply craves an evening of good old-fashioned entertainment.

The show is directed by Sarna Lapine (Sondheim on Sondheim, South Pacific), and musical directed by Jonathan Mastro, composer and musical director for David Cromer's hit revival of Our Town.

Emily Bergl is one of a rare breed of actresses who is at home on the Broadway stage, television, and in Hollywood films. This past television season she shocked audiences as the tragic housewife Beth Young on ABC's "Desperate Housewives." In the fall she will reprise her role as Tammi Bryant on TNT's "Southland." Ms. Bergl most recently appeared on the NY stage in Nora Ephron's "Love, Loss and What I Wore," and "Becky Shaw" at Second Stage." She has starred on Broadway opposite Gabriel Byrne, Stockard Channing, and Laurence Fishburne.
