The Drowsy Chaperone

Hailed by New York Magazine as "The Perfect Broadway Musical," The Drowsy Chaperone is a masterful meta-musical that lovingly pokes fun at the golden age of musical theatre. This Canadian musical was the winner of five Tony Awards, including Best Book and Best Original Score, featuring one show-stopping song and dance number after another.

As the houselights dim, a man settles into his easy chair and puts on his favourite record: the cast recording of a fictitious 1928 musical. The recording comes to life and under his loving and wryly humourous commentary The Drowsy Chaperone begins. Mix in two lovers on the eve of their wedding, a bumbling best man, a desperate theatre producer, a not-so-bright hostess, two gangsters posing as pastry chefs, a misguided Don Juan and an intoxicated chaperone, and you have the ingredients for an evening of madcap delight.

This Youth Series show features our young performers from the Stage 3: The Young Company program. Students in grades 9-12 have their chance to showcase their growing talents in this exciting production.
