Broadway’s song & dance extravaganza, promises toe-tapping excitement as it struts into TSB Showplace on 5 May 2011.
This spectacular stage classic, 42nd Street features dazzling set, costumes and choreography direct from the latest Tony Award winning Broadway revival. With a full live orchestra and an all-singing, all-dancing, all local cast, 42nd Street will make you want to get up and dance! Those memories will come flooding back with its hit show tunes including You’re Getting to Be a Habit with Me, Dames, Only Have Eyes for you, Lullaby of Broadway, Shuffle Off to Buffalo, Forty-Second Street and We’re In the Money – lucky for many Kiwi’s as Lotto’s original jingle!
42nd Street is a big, bold musical set in 1933 that celebrates the stuff that dreams are made of. It’s a story of hard work, being in the right place at the right time, talent and love – the timeless, inspiring tale of small town Peggy Sawyer’s rise from chorus girl to Broadway star.
