On September 30th, Delta Burke debuted as Mrs. Meers in "Thoroughly Modern Millie". Here are photos from her curtain call and party.
Based on the 1967 Oscar-nominated film, the new Broadway musical comedy
Thoroughly Modern Millie takes audiences back to the height of the Jazz
Age in New York City when "moderns" - including a flapper named Millie
Dillmount - were bobbing their hair, raising their hemlines, entering the
workforce, and rewriting the rules of love. This delightful valentine
to the longstanding spirit of New York City and the people who seek to
discover themselves there features 18 songs, including three from the
1967 film, four standards from the 1920s, and 11 new songs by Jeanine
Tesori (music) and Dick Scanlan (lyrics). Winner - six 2002 Tony
Awards, including Best Musical!
