When a die hard fan plays his favourite album, the 1928 recording of The Drowsy Chaperone, the characters come to life in this hilarious musical farce.
Winner of 5 Tony awards (including best book and best original score), The Drowsy Chaperone is a loving send-up of the jazz age musical featuring one show stopping song and dance number after the other.
Hailed by New York Magazine as the Perfect Musical, The Drowsy Chaperone is a masterful meta-musical, poking fun at all the tropes that characterizes the musical theatre genre.
