Castle Craig Players on quest for laughs with Monty Python's SPAMALOT

A quartet of highly talented singers captivate the audience with their intriguing storyline primarily told through lyrics of songs from the 1950s and 1960s. This first rate performance keeps the audience entertained from start to finish.

This long-running Off-Broadway hit takes you back to the 1958 Springfield High School prom where we meet Betty Jean, Cindy Lou, Missy, and Suzy, four girls with hopes and dreams as big as their crinoline skirts! As we learn about their lives and loves, the girls serenade us with classic '50s hits including "Lollipop," "Mister Sandman," "Dream Lover," and "Lipstick on Your Collar." Featuring over 30 classic '50s and '60s hits, THE MARVELOUS WONDERETTES will keep you smiling in this must-take musical trip down memory lane!

Get ready for a non-stop musical blast from the past as the Castle Craig Players present THE MARVELOUS WONDERETTES for two weeks only - May 5-14 - at their intimate Meriden venue. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!
