Winter 1968 and showbiz legend Judy Garland arrives in Swinging London to perform in a sell-out run. It is 30 years since she shot to global stardom in THE WIZARD OF OZ, but if her voice has weakened, its dramatic intensity has only grown. As she prepares for the show, battles with management, charms musicians and reminisces with friends and adoring fans, her wit and warmth shine through.

JUDY features some of her best-known songs, including the timeless classic ‘Over the Rainbow’, and celebrates the voice, the capacity for love and the sheer pizzazz of “the world’s greatest entertainer”.
