    Great day trip of River Cruise lunch and wonderful show at GOODSPEED

    Posted on October 2, 2018 by Groton

    Please join us Wednesday, October 10th as we day trip to Haddam for fine dining on the LADY KATHERINE River Cruise then off to see the great DROWSY CHAPERONE show at the Godspeed.

    In this hilarious valentine to show tunes and show people, a forgotten Jazz Age musical comes to life in the living room of a die hard theater fan. As he eagerly spins his favorite cast album, a fizzy vintage show suddenly appears, exploding with song, dance and pure entertainment. Our quirky narrator fills the plot holes, with laugh-out-loud results. Packed with show-stopping numbers and larger-than-life characters, here’s a Tony Award-winning spoof that will have everyone falling in love with zany musical comedy!
