THE DROWSY CHAPERONE Comes to the Court Theatre This Month  Image

Let Ara Institute of Canterbury's National Academy of Singing and Dramatic Art (NASDA) transport you back to the heady Prohibition days of late 1920s America in this loving send-up of the era's frivolous musicals. A story within a story, The Drowsy Chaperone pokes fun at the many common tropes of old-fashioned musicals. Think Broadway divas, cigar-smoking fat cats, bumbling gangsters, tipsy chaperones and put-upon servants. Expect hi-jinks, mad-cap mix-ups and a plot that spins everyone into musical comedy euphoria.

Music and Lyrics: Lisa Lambert & Greg Morrison
Book by: Bob Martin and Don McKellar
Choreographer: Kira Josephson

Performances run 29 October-6 November.
