Winner of five Tony Awards, "The Drowsy Chaperone" is a loving send-up of the Jazz Age musical. As the houselights dim, a man in a chair appears on stage and plays us his favorite record: the cast recording of a fictitious 1928 musical. Poking fun of the many tropes that characterize the genre, this musical farce features toe-tapping song and dance numbers that burst to life in the man’s apartment as the cast recording plays.

Called “the sweetest, cleverest and one of the most purely entertaining productions on Broadway", "The Drowsy Chaperone" is a masterful meta-musical, featuring a cast of unforgettable characters.

Tickets are $10.00 for the general public, $6.00 for Radford faculty & staff, seniors, handicap and children and free for Radford University students.
