A Day in Hollywood / A Night in the Ukraine “Chat Back / Backstage Tour”

Sunday, December 18, 3:00 pm

$30 member / $35 nonmember / $30 senior (62 and over) / $15 student (18 and under) / $30 group (8 or more)

By Dick Vosburgh & Frank Lazarus. Two one-act plays provide a double feature more hilarious than any presented in Hollywood’s heyday. Winner of two Tony Awards and a hit Broadway production.

The first act, A Day in Hollywood, is a revue of classic Hollywood songs of the 1930s performed by singing and dancing ushers from Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, the iconic Hollywood landmark.

The second act, A Night in the Ukraine, is loosely based on The Bear: A Joke in One Act by the great Russian playwright Anton Chekhov. The Bear is a three-character play, but the author of A Night in the Ukraine adds Nina and Constantine, the lovers from Chekhov’s The Seagull.

The score of A day in Hollywood/ A Night in the Ukraine combines songs by composer Frank Lazarus and lyricist Dick Vosburg, three songs by Jerry Herman and many movie musical standards. 

Direction by John Glenn
Musical direction by R.L. Rowsey
