The Drowsy
Chaperone
Fresh from its triumphant run in L.A. (where it won five Drama
Critics' Circle Awards), The Drowsy Chaperone swoops onto Broadway
full of life, energy, laughter, singing, dancing, champagne,
monkeys and Tony winner Sutton Foster, not necessarily in that
order.
It all begins when a die-hard musical-theater fan plays his
favorite cast album on his turntable, and the musical literally
bursts to life in his living room, telling the rambunctious tale of
a brazen Broadway starlet trying to find, and keep, her true
love.
A
rare combination of unprecedented originality and blinding talent,
The Drowsy Chaperone is a new Broadway musical that boldly
addresses a great unspoken desire in all of our hearts: to be
entertained. If you've ever sat in a darkened theatre and thought,
"Dear Lord in heaven, please let it be good," this is the show for
you.
The Color Purple
From Alice Walker's classic
Pulitzer Prize-winning novel and the landmark film by Steven
Spielberg comes a soul-stirring new musical. The Color Purple is an
inspiring and unforgettable story of a woman, who, through love,
finds the strength to triumph over adversity and discover her
unique voice in the world. The New York Times calls it “A bright odyssey of survival
and triumph. Purple strikes sparks,” and USA
Today raved, “The Color Purple celebrates the
inspiring relationships of faith and love. A Broadway
hit!”
With a moving book and a score featuring gospel, jazz, ragtime and
the blues, The Color Purple is ultimately a story of hope, a
testament to the healing power of love and a celebration of
life.
Chicago
"Murder,
greed, corruption, violence, exploitation, adultery and
treachery--all those things we hold near and dear to our
hearts."
So begins the musical Chicago--and creators John Kander, Fred Ebb
and Bob Fosse never back off from their bold and sinister promise.
Chicago is the kiss-and-tell tale of Roxie Hart, a chorus girl who
kills her lover as a career move; Billy Flynn, a sharp lawyer who
turns Roxie into a celebrity; and Velma Kelly, a dancing jailbird
with an ear for headlines and an eye for talent.
Chicago, winner of six 1997 Tony Awards, including Best Musical
Revival, is a loving look back at vaudeville, a timely satire of
the justice system, and a reminder of what great theater can be.
Come see the stage version that grabbed Broadway's attention years
before the acclaimed film version made a killing at the Academy
Awards.
