Get ready to be transported to a magical, wonderful world: a world where the critics are in awe, the audiences are in heaven, and the neighborhood is buzzing with excitement! Welcome to The Drowsy Chaperone, the new musical comedy that is swooping into town with tons of laughs and the most 2006 Tony Awards® of any musical on Broadway! It all begins when a die-hard musical fan—simply known as “Man in Chair”—plays his favorite cast album, a 1928 smash hit called The Drowsy Chaperone, to chase away his blues. From the crackle of his hi-fi, the musical magically bursts to life on stage, telling the glamorous, hilarious tale of a pampered Broadway starlet who wants to give up show business to get married, her producer who sets out to sabotage the nuptials, her chaperone, the debonair groom, the dizzy chorine, the Latin lover, and a pair of gangsters who double as pastry chefs. The ensuing thrills and surprises take both the cast (literally) and the audience (metaphorically) soaring into the rafters.

“Witty and fun…Drowsy shines with originality.” –St. Louis Post-Dispatch
