 | • The Drowsy Chaperone - "The Drowsy Chaperone" is for people who both love and hate the American musicals of the Jazz Age. The show's narrator, a mousy, agoraphobic Broadway fanatic seeking a cure for the blues, listens to a recording of an obscure 1928 musical comedy, "The Drowsy Chaperone." As he listens to this rare recording, he and the audience are transported into a 90-minute roller coaster ride of song, dance and laughter.
