The YouthCONNection Presents The Drowsy Chaperone

The Youth CONNection’s 30th Anniversary Production of The Drowsy Chaperone

Gary and Francesca Scarpa, founders of Center Stage Theatre and the Youth CONNection, announces ticket sales for the summer’s upcoming production of The Drowsy Chaperone, as it celebrates its 30th anniversary. The winner of five Tony Awards and seven Drama Desk Awards, the musical is a ridiculously entertaining and insanely hilarious musical that is certain to delight you! To chase his blues away, a modern day musical theater addict known simply as 'Man in Chair,' drops the needle on his favorite LP, the 1928 musical comedy The Drowsy Chaperone. When the record begins to play, the musical magically bursts to life in his apartment, telling the tale of a pampered Broadway starlet who wants to give up show business to get married, her producer who sets out to sabotage the wedding, her chaperone, the debonair groom, her Latin lover and a pair of bumbling gangsters. The antics that ensue will have you laughing the entire time.

This summer’s production of The Drowsy Chaperone, directed by Gary Scarpa and choreographed by daughter Mia Scarpa, will be held at the Percy Kingsley Auditorium at Shelton High School July 26th and 27th and August 2nd and 3rd at 8:00pm and August 3rd at 2:00pm. Tickets are $20 for adults and $10 for students.
