The Drowsy Chaperone's Tony Award-nominated stars Bob Martin and Beth Leavel will perform "As We Stumble Along" live on ABC's "Live with Regis and Kelly" on Thursday, June 8th.

"Live with Regis and Kelly" airs on ABC (Channel 7 in New York) from 9:00 - 10:00 a.m.

The number will be presented as part of a "Regis and Kelly" week spotlighting Tony Award-nominated Broadway shows. From June 5th through June 9th, the popular morning show is featuring numbers from Sweeney Todd, The Color Purple, The Pajama Game, The Drowsy Chaperone and Bridge & Tunnel.

The Drowsy Chaperone began previews April 3, 2006 and officially opened May 1, 2006 at the Marquis Theatre (1535 Broadway). "To chase his blues away, a modern day musical theatre addict known simply as "Man in Chair" drops the needle on his favorite LP – the 1928 musical comedy The Drowsy Chaperone. From the crackle of his hi-fi, the uproariously funny musical magically bursts to life on stage."
 

The Drowsy Chaperone has received thirteen 2005-2006 Tony Award® nominations including Best Musical, Direction and Choreography (Casey Nicholaw), Leading Actor (Bob Martin), Leading Actress (Sutton Foster), Featured Actor (Danny Burstein), Featured Actress (Beth Leavel), Best Book (Bob Martin and Don McKellar), Original Score (Lisa Lambert and Greg Morrison), Costume Design (Gregg Barnes), Scenic Design (David Gallo), Lighting Design (Ken Billington and Brian Monahan) and Orchestrations (Larry Blank).

The show also won the 2005-2006 New York Drama Critics' Circle Award for Best Musical and four 2005-2006 Outer Critic's Circle Awards including Outstanding Featured Actress in a Musical for Beth Leavel, Outstanding New Score, Outstanding Set Design and Outstanding Costume Design.
