The Round Barn Theatre at Amish Acres, Nappanee, Indiana is presents 42ND STREET, which will run July 20 through August 29.
42ND STREET tells the story of a humble, naïve, young actress named Peggy Sawyer who has come to audition for a new Broadway musical. Unfortunately, due to her nervousness, Peggy arrives to the audition late and misses her chance to join the chorus. Luckily, Peggy soon catches the eye of the famous director, Julian Marsh, and he gives Peggy her big break. However, the show's aging leading lady, Dorothy Brock, quickly grows to dislike Peggy. During final rehearsals, Ms. Brock falls and breaks her ankle. Panic spreads through the company, as the show is doomed for closure, until it is suggested that Peggy take the role. In only thirty-six hours, Peggy learns twenty-five pages of dialogue, six songs and ten dances. 42nd Street includes the Broadway standards "We're in the Money", "Shuffle Off to Buffalo", "Lullaby of Broadway" and "About a Quarter to Nine".
