About 42nd Street
This classic showbiz fairytale has Peggy Sawyer centre stage. She has set her sights on the bright lights and bustling streets of New York City in the hopes of making it big on Broadway. Fresh off the bus from Middle Of Nowhere, USA, the young dreamer searches the streets for an opportunity, armed with her optimism, youth and good looks. When Peggy crosses paths with a big-time director, she secures her place in the chorus line of Broadway’s newest and most highly-anticipated show. Then, when the leading lady gets injured…a shot at stardom seems within reach, but will she achieve her dreams?
The production features a parade of toe-tapping tunes including “We’re In The Money”, “42nd Street”, “Lullaby of Broadway”, “Shuffle Off To Buffalo” and “I Only Have Eyes For You."
