'Jerry's Girls'
 


Music and Lyrics by Jerry Herman 

October 28th through November 15th, 2009!

'Jerry's Girls' is a celebratory 2-hour musical extravaganza
with glamour, optimism, love, melody, and women. More
than most songwriters, Jerry Herman has put the larger-
than-life women of his shows center stage.

There's Dolly Gallagher Levi of 'Hello, Dolly!', Auntie
Mame Dennis of 'Mame', Countess Aurelia of 'Dear
World', Mabel Normand of 'Mack & Mabel', and...
...featuring ZaZa from 'La Cage Aux Folles'!


It is fitting that, in 'Jerry's Girls' there are women center stage, once again.
Women affectionately celebrating Jerry's special gift for writing songs that
capture the true spirit of the American musical theater.

The show's name-dropping title song, 'Jerry's Girls' (to the tune of 'It's Today'
from 'Mame'), that opens act one, honors the 40-plus female stars who have
appeared in Herman musicals over the years, and features a dazzling array
of songs from these landmark shows.

Look forward to a brilliant and lively show with enjoyable music, wit, and humor!

Jerry Herman received a Tony Award, this year, for life achievement in theater! 

Performances are Wednesday and Thursday evenings at 7:30 pm, Friday & Saturday
at 8 pm, With matinees on Wednesday and Sunday at 2 pm.

The Ivoryton Playhouse 103 Main Street Ivoryton, CT 06442
