The Drowsy Chaperone

Jerry Herman Ring Theatre
1312 Miller Rd Coral Gables

A modern-day theater addict puts his favorite musical on the record player to chase the blues away, only to have the story come to life right there in his apartment in the Tony-winning The Drowsy Chaperone. In the show-within-the-show that ensues, a pampered Broadway starlet's plans for marriage are upset by a scheming producer, setting off a wild plot involving a chaperone, a Latin lover and gangsters who double as pastry chefs. Bubbling over with wit, thrills and glorious song and dance, this comical send-up of Jazz Age musical theater comes to the Jerry Herman Ring Theatre courtesy of the the talented performers of the University of Miami's College of Arts & Sciences.
