The 42nd Street Moon Presents JUBILEE 11/25-12/13

The 42nd Street Moon presents Jubilee with music and lyrics by Cole Porter, book by Moss Hart and directed by Greg MacKellan.  The show will run from November 25 – December 13 with opening / press night on Saturday, November 28 at 6 pm.

Oh, what high jinks abound in Cole Porter and Moss Hart's smart, cheeky, and ultra-moderne 1935 hit! The Royal Family of a "fictional European country" (read: England) uses the threat posed by an impending revolution as an excuse to abandon the throne and pursue their private dreams. Off they go on an adventure with parody versions of a host of recognizable 1930s celebrities (Noel Coward, Elsa Maxwell, Johnny Weissmuller, Ginger Rogers), who show the disguised monarch and his family the time of their royal lives. Cole Porter's amazing score includes Begin the Beguine, Just One of Those Things, Why Shouldn't I?, A Picture of Me Without You, and The Kling-Kling Bird on the Divi-Divi Tree.

Megan Cavanagh and Michael Patrick Gaffney star as the Queen and King.

Performances will be held on Wednesdays at 7pm, Thursdays and Fridays at 8pm,  Saturdays at 6 pm and Sundays at 3 pm.  Select Saturday matinees will be held at 1 pm.

Tickets range in price from $19 - $44.  For more information or for tickets visit www.42ndstreetmoon.org or call (415) 255-8207.  The 42nd Street Moon is located at The Eureka Theatre at 215 Jackson Street at Battery.
