HIGH SOCIETY Indianapolis Run Enters Last Days, Closes 3/29
"High Society" made its Indianapolis premiere with this Footlite production directed by Kevin D. Smith. The plot centers on pretentious Long Island socialite Tracy Lord, who is planning a June 1938 wedding to an equally pretentious executive when ex-husband Dexter Haven arrives to disrupt the proceedings. Additional comic complications arise when tabloid reporter Mike Connor, who is there to cover the wedding, also falls for the bride-to-be. The score's songs were compiled from various Porter musicals with additional updated lyrics.
Music and Lyrics by Cole Porter
Additional Lyrics by Susan Birkenhead
Book by Arthur Kopit
Based on the play "The Philadelphia Story" by Philip Barry and the MGM motion picture "High Society"
