THE DROWSY CHAPERONE Comes To Peninsula Players This Month The hit musical comedy THE DROWSY CHAPERONE is making its way to the Peninsula Players from July 25 to August 12.

This musical comedy spoofs, but still pays loving homage to, the frothy American musicals of the Jazz Age.

A musical theater uber-fan seeks to cure his melancholy by listening to a rare recording of his favorite show, a fictional 1928 musical comedy, THE DROWSY CHAPERONE. As the album plays, his sparse apartment transforms into a glittering Broadway set, and he is, himself, gleefully transported into the musical. As the orchestra plays, we meet an attractive young couple on the eve of their wedding, a harried best man, a Broadway impresario, an absent-minded dowager, two gangsters posing as pastry chefs, a ditzy chorus girl, a very misguided Don Juan and a tipsy chaperone.

Sit back and enjoy this smart, silly, bubbly and entertaining fictional gem from the Golden Age of musical theater.
