“The Drowsy Chaperone” celebrates American musicals of the Jazz Age. The production tells the story of a die-hard musical-theater fan who plays his favorite cast album-a 1928 smash hit “The Drowsy Chaperone.” As he listens, the musical magically comes to life in his apartment.
“The Drowsy Chaperone” opens Jan. 14 at the McLean Community Center’s Alden Theatre, 1234 Ingleside Ave., McLean. Tickets are $17 – $19 with group rates available.
