Question 12

Name either the movie or musical. The film was a 1975 documentary about a mother and daughter who had been living in squalor in a cat infested, garbage strewn, dilapidated mansion in East Hampton, New York before their niece and cousin provided enough money to repair the mansion and stabilize their living conditions. The show ran for just over 300 performances on Broadway, but earned 10 Tony nominations. Identify this musical which focuses on the partially fictionalized lives of Edith and Edith Beale, the aunt and cousin of Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onasis. Both the documentary and musical are named for the estate which has since been restored to its former glory.
