Ready to be dazzled? The 1980 Tony Award-winner for Best Musical, 42nd Street is a celebration of Broadway and Times Square that provides a behind-the-scenes peek at the people who make the magic of musical theater. Who better than our Mainstage creative team to put on this extravaganza?
Set in the early 1930s, 42nd Street tells the story of a starry-eyed young dancer named Peggy Sawyer who leaves her Allentown home and comes to New York to audition for a new Broadway musical. Along with its classic American Dream story, the Tony Award-winning song and dance fable features some of the greatest show tunes ever written, including “We’re In The Money,” “Lullaby of Broadway,” “Shuffle Off To Buffalo,” and of course, “42nd Street.”
