Mishawaka H.S. Spring Musical is The Drowsy Chaperone

Mishawaka High School presents The Drowsy Chaperone April 15th & 16th at 6:30pm and at 3pm Sunday at Mishawaka High Shool.  When wealthy widow Mrs. Tottendale hosts the wedding of the year, she gets a lot more than a write-up in the society pages: Janet Van deGraaff, glittering starlet of Feldzieg’s Follies, is leaving the stage for love, a turn of events which horrifies the angry and anxious Mr. Feldzieg, whose chief investor has sent two gangsters disguised as pastry chefs to make sure he stops the wedding. Hiring Aldolpho, a Latin lover more vain than virile, to seduce the bride, is unsuccessful, as Janet’s chaperone, a drunken diva, gets herself mistaken for the bride and seduced in Janet’s place. It is left to eager best man, George,to quite by accident break up the happy pair, when he sends groom Robert Martin out to the garden, blindfolded, and in roller skates. Such are the antics of The Drowsy Chaperone, the fictitious 1928 musical comedy.  Tickets are available at the box office before each show, adults $5, and students $1, Mishawaka High School at 1202 Lincoln Way East in Mishawaka.
