SWEET CHARITY Plays the Lake Worth Playhouse Image

Inspired by Federico Fellini's Nights of Cabiria, SWEET CHARITY explores the turbulent love life of Charity Hope Valentine, a hopelessly romantic but comically unfortunate dance hall hostess in New York City. With a tuneful, groovy, mid-1960s score by Cy Coleman, sparkling lyrics by Dorothy Fields, and a hilarious book by Neil Simon, SWEET CHARITY captures all the energy, humor, and heartbreak of Life in the Big City.

Musical numbers include: "Big Spender," "If My Friends Could See Me Now," "There's Gotta Be Something Better Than This," "I'm a Brass Band" and "Baby, Dream Your Dream."

Schedule:

Preview Night is Thursday, April 11, 2019 at 8:00 p.m. ($27)

Opening Night is Friday, April 12, 2019 at 8:00 p.m. ($38 - includes Opening Night Reception)

Evening and Matinee Performances will run April 13-28, 2019 at 8pm and 2pm. ($29 & $35)
