The Drowsy Chaperone makes its Theatre Memphis debut on the Lohrey Stage March 9-31, 2018.

The recording "comes to life" and you have the ingredients for a masterful madcap evening that lovingly pokes fun at the musical theatre genre. Lovers on the eve of their wedding, desperate, bumbling friends, not-so-bright characters, imposters, and more perform one toe-tapping, rousing musical number after another.
