Lempicka's stay on Broadway may have been short, but its cast album—which dropped June 14—has ensured its score will live on. See Tony nominee Amber Iman record a rip-roaring section of "Don't Bet Your Heart" in the studio in the newly released video above.
The musical played its final performance at the Longacre Theatre May 19, and earned three Tony Award nominations: Best Leading Actress in a Musical for Eden Espinosa, Featured Actress in a Musical for Iman, and Best Scenic Design of a Musical for Riccardo Hernández and Peter Nigrini.
The work follows the true story of Polish painter Tamara de Lempicka, a young aristocrat-turned-artist who flees with her husband from the turmoil of the Russian Revolution for exile in Paris. Once there, Tamara meets her new muse, Rafaela, and claws her way to success. The book, lyrics, and original concept are by Carson Kreitzer, with Matt Gould co-writing the book and penning the music. Tony winner Rachel Chavkin directed.
