NiCori Teen Performance Ensemble Brings Tony Award Winning "The Drowsy Chaperone" to Morris Plains

originally published: 07/29/2024


(MORRIS PLAINS, NJ) -- With music and lyrics by Lisa Lambert and Greg Morrison, and a book by Bob Martin and Don McKellar, The Drowsy Chaperone will be performed at the Red Oakes School with four performances from August 1-3, 2024. Winner of five Tony Awards, including Best Book and Best Original Score, The Drowsy Chaperone is a loving send-up of the Golden Age musical, featuring one show-stopping song and dance number after another.

The NiCori Teen Performance Ensemble stars in the TONY Award winning musical, The Drowsy Chaperone as a culmination of a five week intensive summer camp featuring students ages 12-18 and NiCori Alumni Andrew Lomonte and Mayte Neyra.

The Drowsy Chaperone is Directed by eight time Tony Award nominee for Excellence in Theater Education, Corinna Sowers Adler, Musically Directed by Shane Turner with Choreographed by Lisa Grimes and Ava Rakowski.

Hailed by New York Magazine as “The Perfect Broadway Musical,” The Drowsy Chaperone is a masterful meta-musical, poking fun at all the tropes that characterize the musical theatre genre.

Performances take place Thursday, August 1 and Friday, August 2 at 6:00pm; Saturday, August 3 at 2:00pm & 6:00pm. VIP Tickets (first three rows) $25 while general admission tickets are $20 and $15 for seniors/students. Cash only at the door. Tickets and more information available at www.nicoristudios.com. Red Oakes School is located at 238 Speedwell Avenue, Morris Plains.
