She's a spunky kid who's moved to New York from Salina, Kansas. She's ready to join the modern women of the 1920's, raise her skirt, bob her hair, marry her boss and have a stable future. But then, there's Jimmy...
ME Performing Arts is pleased to present its youth production of Thoroughly Modern Millie Junior, with performances on Friday and Saturday, March 13th & 14th at 7:00pm, and Sunday March 15th at 1:00 pm. All performances will be at the ME Theatre, 1300 La Quinta Drive Orlando, FL 32809.

This zany story revolves around Millie Dillmount (Cecilia Miller), who escapes to New York City from Salina, Kansas determined to marry her wealthy boss - whoever he may be. Shedding her country girl image for the modern look of a flapper, she takes a room at the Priscilla Hotel for Women and gets a job as a stenographer at the Sincere Trust Insurance Company. In short time, she meets Jimmy Smith (Keagan Bartlett), an apparently unsuccessful paper clip salesman; Miss Dorothy Brown (Isabel Messinger), a genteel aspiring actress who is excited to be poor; and Trevor Graydon III (George Lacomb), the unromantic boss Millie wants to marry. Add in the hotel proprietress and villainess everyone loves to hate, Mrs. Meers (Grae Jordan), and her assistants Ching Ho (Asher Levine) and Bun Foo (Quinn Bergethon) whom she forces to carry out her diabolical schemes, and you've got a fantastic story of adventure, romance, comedy and pure entertainment.
Rounding out the talented cast are Faubieolla Satur as Miss Flannery, and the Hotel Priscilla girls played by Mia Duxbury, Jiana Gonzalez, Avery Haugh, Lydia Hinners, Frances Recio, Emily Stilling, Cas Stilling, and Evelyn Pasch.
