The Marvelous Wonderettes Roger Bean

Full-Length Musical This all-new version of the show combines the first act of The Marvelous Wonderettes with the first act of the sequel Wonderettes: Caps & Gowns, adding additional characters from the Springfield High Glee Club (any number of boys or girls you need) to create a truly flexible large-cast version of this perennial favorite. We begin at the 1958 Springfield High School Senior 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, loves, and friendships, the girls serenade us with classic '50s hits as they compete for prom queen. Act II zooms ahead to graduation day for the Class of 1958, and the Wonderettes celebrate with their fellow classmates and teachers as they prepare for their next step toward a bright future. Produce the entire show or either act on its own. Each act runs 45 minutes. (4F, Flexible)
