Spring 2011 - The Drowsy Chaperone
Music and Lyrics by LISA LAMBERT and GREG MORRISON Book by BOB MARTIN and DON MCKELLAR.
Produced by special arrangement with Music Theatre International.

This “Musical within a Comedy” pokes fun at theatre and theatre goers. The show takes us back to the era of 1920’s Jazz through the eyes of a die-hard musical theatre lover who upon playing his soundtrack of the 1928 hit musical The Drowsy Chaperone brings the show and it’s cast back to life. This zany Broadway sendup won five Tony Awards including Best Book and Best Score. CityBeat critic Rick Pender said it best, “Every time you think Chaperone couldn’t get any loonier, it does. And that’s the fun of it.”

Directed by Skip Fenker                               
Produced by Kathy Beiting
 
Performances at the Jarson-Kaplan Theatre of the Aronoff Performing Arts Center, May 6-14, 2011.
