THE DROWSY CHAPERONE
18/01/2010 - 20/02/2010
The Arts Centre, Playhouse -
All Singing! All Dancing! All Kinda Silly! Whatever happened to those toe-tapping, audience-grabbing musicals of yesteryear - like The Drowsy Chaperone? You remember it - it's the one where the Broadway star wants to leave the show because she's fallen for some oil-rich lummox, so the producer hires a gigolo to woo the girl and put the kibosh on the nuptials. With chorus girls and gangsters and an aviatrix and, of course, the 'drowsy' chaperone!
Those were the days! The Man in the Chair is your guide to this star-studded, sequin-drenched lollapalooza of a show from the days when stars had charisma, Broadway had romance and Rodgers had Hart.
Director Simon Phillips Cast includes Geoffrey Rush, Robyn Nevin, Shane Jaconson, Grant Piro, Richard Piper, Heidi Arena
