The Drowsy Chaperone

June, 2018

The Community Players of Salisbury are presenting The Drowsy Chaperone. Directed by Kel Nagel Show dates are 6/22 through 6/24.

With the houselights down, a man in a chair appears on stage and puts on his favorite record: the cast recording of a fictitious 1928 musical. The recording comes to life and The Drowsy Chaperone begins as the man in the chair looks on. Mix in two lovers on the eve of their wedding, a bumbling best man, a desperate theatre producer, a not-so-bright hostess, two gangsters posing as pastry chefs, a misguided Don Juan and an intoxicated chaperone, and you have the ingredients for an evening of madcap delight.

Sun, Jun 24 We saw the final performance, the matinee, and found it thoroughly entertaining. Wed, Apr 05 Selected by the board to be the 4th show of the 2017-2018 season.
