The Players Presents Musical Comedy THE MARVELOUS WONDERETTES

The Players Centre for Performing Arts is excited to present this season's second Summer Sizzler production, the endearing musical comedy "The Marvelous Wonderettes." This smash off-Broadway hit includes some of your favorite girl group songs that'll have you tapping your feet all the way home like: "Lollipop," "Dream Lover," "Stupid Cupid," and "Lipstick on Your Collar." Featuring over 30 classic '50s and '60s numbers, The Marvelous Wonderettes will keep you smiling in this must-take musical trip down memory lane!

Story: Welcome 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. Then, the Wonderettes reunite to take the stage and perform at their 10-year reunion. We learn about the highs and lows the girls have experienced in the past decade and are charmed to find that no matter what life throws their way, they will conquer it together.

Directed by Helen Holliday, along with Musical Director Michelle Neal and Stage Manager Brian Finnerty, you'll fall in love the Wonderettes. Costumes by Tim Beltley, lighting design by Daniel Polk and set design by Jeff Weber, will send you right back in time to the 50s and 60s in what the New York Times calls, "One irresistible musical! An utter charm bomb!"
