Sierra Repertory takes its audiences to the glamorous and nostalgic world of Tony Award winning musical The Drowsy Chaperone October 16 to November 22 at the East Sonora Theatre on Mono Way. The comedy begins when a die-hard musical fan, feeling blue, dusts off his favorite cast album, a fictitious 1928 hit called The Drowsy Chaperone. The show comes to life - showy, glitzy, colorful life - in his drab living room as he wryly comments on the lush music, the thin plot and the personal lives of the actors.

Ocean State Theatre Company (OSTC), which recently completed its third season in its state-of-the-art theatre in Warwick, is proud to continue its summer season with the Tony Award-winning classic American musical, Gypsy. Check out photos from the show below!

While it seems that some musicals are constantly produced and have been seen by every theatergoer alive, others seem more elusive. For example, there's no good explanation for why so many people have mentioned recently that they've never seen the musical Gypsy. 'Oh, I know the songs,' they all say. Immediately followed by, 'But I've never seen the actual show.' If you are among that number, Ocean State Theatre Company has just what you need, a nearly perfect production of this classic and beloved musical. And if you are not one of those people, and you have seen the show before, you should definitely take this opportunity to see it again.
