Now Playing: The Drowsy Chaperone

The Drowsy Chaperone:

The Drowsy Chaperone is a new musical comedy. This description is from the press release: "To chase his blues away, a modern-day musical theatre addict known simply as 'Man in Chair' drops the needle on his favorite LP, the 1928 musical comedy 'The Drowsy Chaperone'. From the crackle of his hi-fi, the musical magically bursts to life on the stage, telling the tale of a pampered Broadway starlet who wants to give up show business to get married, her producer who sets out to sabotage her nuptials, her chaperone, the debonair groom, the dizzy chorine, the Latin lover, and a pair of gangsters who double as pastry chefs." The Drowsy Chaperone originated in the Toronto Fringe Festival. It had its American premiere in Los Angeles in 2005.
