Parsons Theatre at the Northglenn Recreation Center, Community Center Drive.

Auditions The Drowsy Chaperone Music and Lyrics by Lisa Lambert and Greg Morrison Book by Bob Martin and Don McKellar Presented by the Northglenn Players Directed by Linda Suttle Musical Direction by Mark Stamper Adult auditions will be held for the musical production of The Drowsy Chaperone.

Auditions: May 11 & pm to schedule an appointment: northglennplayers@northglenn.org Performances Tickets: The Northglenn Players present The Drowsy Chaperone Produced by special arrangement with Music Theatre International Music and Lyrics by Lisa Lambert and Greg Morrison Book by Bob Martin and Don McKellar Hailed by New York Magazine as The Perfect Broadway Musical, the Drowsy Chaperone is a masterful meta-musical, poking fun at all the tropes that characterize the musical theatre genre. 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 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.
