The Marvelous Wonderettes at City Theater

There is one more weekend to see “The Marvelous Wonderettes” at City Theater. Written and created by Roger Bean, it is a cotton-candy colored, non-stop pop musical. It takes the audience to the 1958 Springfield High School prom where we meet the Wonderettes – four girls with hopes and dreams as big as their crinoline skirts and voices to match. In the second act the Wonderettes reunite to take the stage and perform at their ten-year reunion. We learn about their lives and loves as the girls performing classic ‘50s and ‘60s pop songs including “Lollipop,” “Dream Lover,” “Stupid Cupid,” “I Only Want To Be With You” and “Wedding Bell Blues.”
The Marvelous Wonderettes final two performances Friday. Aug 6th and Saturday, Aug 7th at 7:30 PM Tickets are $20 and are available at www.citytheater.org or 207-282-0849
