A musical comedy superstar… a forgetful (but adorable) matron… a tap-dancing leading man… and a tipsy (drowsy) chaperone head up this critically acclaimed musical-comedy that pays tribute to the Jazz-age shows of the 1920s. It boldly addresses a great unspoken desire in all of our hearts: to be entertained. The “Man-in-the-Chair,” who is a die-hard musical theater fan, plays his favorite cast album for you and speaks directly to the audience as the musical literally bursts to life in his living room. Immerse yourself in the glamorous, hilarious tale of a celebrity bride and her uproarious wedding day. Complete with thrills and surprises, dancing and tons of laughs! 2006 Tony Award winner for Best Book of a Musical and Best Score.
Recommended for audiences aged 8 and up.
Presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International.
