Amas Musical Theatre Presents THE PAJAMA GAME 5/7-16
It's Spring and just in time for a visit to the Golden Age of Broadway. Labor relations at the Sleep-Tite Pajama Factory get REAL complicated when Sid, the handsome new manager falls for the feisty, headstrong Babe, leader of the Union Grievance Committee. Their dispute parallels the ups and downs of the labor/management negotiations and turn the whole workplace topsy-turvy. Non-stop Broadway pop standards of the '50's include Steam Heat, Hey There, and Hernando's Hideaway. Join us for a time when 7 &1/2 cents could make a real difference!
MAY 7 - MAY 16 - EIGHT PERFORMANCES ONLY!
book by George Abbott and Richard Bissell, music and lyrics by Richard Adler and Jerry Ross, based on the novel "7½ Cents" by Richard Bissell.

The Rosetta LeNoire Musical Theatre Academy has been featured in The New York Times, The New Amsterdam News, The New York Post, and on NY1. The New Amsterdam News hailed the Academy production of Footloose as "a fun, high-energized musical with an extremely talented company of young actors."
Amas Musical Theatre is a non-profit, multi-ethnic performing arts organization founded in 1968 by Ms. Rosetta LeNoire. Amas ("you love" in Latin) is devoted to the creation, development and professional production of new American musicals through the celebration of diversity and minority perspectives, the emergence of new artistic talent, and the training of inner-city young people. Recent productions include Signs of Life, Wanda's World, Shout! The Mod Musical, Lone Star Love, Zanna, Don't! and Stormy Weather: The Story of Lena Horne.
THE PAJAMA GAME is made possible with public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts, a State Agency, the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council, and by the Ampacet Corporation, the Bill and Jeanne Cantor Scholarship Fund, and through the generousity of many individual Amas supporters.
