The Drowsy Chaperone
September 27 - October 6, 2024
About the Show:
Winner of five Tony Awards, including Best Book and Best Original Score, The Drowsy Chaperone is a loving send-up of the Jazz Age musical, featuring one show-stopping song and dance number after another.
The theater lights dim as a fictitious 1928 musical, The Drowsy Chaperone, comes to life, with two lovers on the eve of their wedding, a bumbling best man, a desperate theatre producer, a not-so-bright hostess, two gangsters posing as pastry chefs, a misguided Don Juan and an intoxicated chaperone. Put all together, you have the ingredients for hilariously toe-tapping evening of madcap delight.
