The Drowsy Chaperone at The Cape Playhouse

The Drowsy Chaperone was called "the perfect musical" by New York magazine. It begins as a grumpy man puts the cast album of his favorite stage musical on his record player to chase his blues away. Suddenly, his dingy apartment's magically transformed into a 1928 Broadway set and he finds himself in the center of a "musical within a comedy," mixed up in mayhem with a starlet, her groom, a desperate producer, gangsters, a drunken chaperone and more. Featuring such songs as "Fancy Dress," "As We Stumble Along" and "Show Off," the original Broadway run of The Drowsy Chaperone won Tony Awards for Best Book of a Musical and Best Original Score. Now a charming new production comes to the Cape Playhouse in Cape Cod.
