"My friend Marlene Dietrich would have loved this musical." - Mitzi Gaynor

A fascinating true story enhanced with fabulous songs. We learn of Marlene and Maurice's love story as they meet in 1932 Hollywood, both Paramount's top stars, both married to others. They become lovers and friends for life. During World War II, Dietrich was entertaining her adoring G.I.s on battlefields, while Chevalier was in France, forced to sing in Paris to Nazi soldiers. As the war ended, Dietrich was hailed as a hero, while Chevalier was accused of treason and on trial for his life.

You'll love hearing 15 of their great songs sung their way! "Falling in love Again," "Louise," "Lili Marlene," "Mimi," "No Love, No Nothin'," "Valentine," "The Boys in the Back Room," "Girls, Girls, Girls" and 7 more signature hits.

Performances begin June 5th at St. Luke's Theatre, 308 W. 46th St.

DIEITRICH & CHEVALIER The Musical will play wednesdays at 2pm, Saturdays at 2pm and Sundays at 2pm & 7pm.
