Synopsis The women of Thoroughly
Modern Millie might not seem too modern today, but they were the
cat's meow back in the 20s when women were starting to step out by
themselves. Young Millie is from Kansas and comes to New York to
enjoy everything she's heard about the Big Apple. The show includes
a mix of 1920s jazz standards, new music written for the show and
songs written for the movie version, including the still popular
title song by James van Heusen and Sammy Cahn
TheaterScene Review
I am happy to report there is
practically nothing new in this deliciously old fashioned musical.
Its goal is to be entertaining, how unusual in today's
"modern" standards. The show "suffers" from the
crimes of director Michael Mayer's insistence on rampant enthusiasm
from a large, youthful cast...
