THE DROWSY CHAPERONE Will Come to City Circle Theatre Company in May

The Drowsy Chaperone will open Friday night, May 1! City Circle Theatre Company will present The Drowsy Chaperone at the Coralville Center for the Performing Arts May 1–3 & 8–10.

Champagne, showstoppers, and a musical within a musical (within a comedy!) — The Drowsy Chaperone is Broadway comedy at its most irresistible. When a die-hard theatre fan plays his favorite cast album, the characters leap to life in this hilarious, Tony Award-winning celebration of everything we love about musical theatre. New York Magazine called it "The Perfect Broadway Musical," and it's easy to see why.

City Circle Theatre Company brings this madcap delight to the Coralville Center stage with all the glamour, heart, and spectacle the show demands. Filled with show-stopping numbers, sharp wit, and a generous serving of pure theatrical joy, this is the production you won't want to miss this spring. Catch it May 1–3 and 8–10—and come ready to laugh!
