Tony Award winning musical opens February 16, 2012

Broadway Palm Dinner Theatre is proud to present the Tony Award winning musical Me and My Girl playing February 16 through April 8, 2012.  This toe-tapping musical explodes with slapstick British humor and a feel-good love story.

It’s 1937 and the Earl of Hareford has died leaving no apparent heir. The family has gathered, eagerly awaiting to hear how the estate will be split. They are shocked to learn that the unlikely heir is commoner, Bill Snibson, a pugnacious Cockney ne’er do-well from Lambeth. Hilarity ensues as the Duchess tries to turn Bill into a proper gentleman. The British blue-bloods eventually warm to his charm and so will you as you dance in the aisles to the “Lambeth Walk”.

A simple little tale about a male equivalent of  Pygmalion’s Eliza Doolittle, Me and My Girl became one of Britain’s most successful musicals. Me and My Girl opened on Broadway at the Marquis Theatre on August 10, 1986, and closed on December 31, 1989, after 1,420 performances. Directed by Mike Ockrent with choreography by Gillian Gregory, the production was nominated for 13 Tony Awards and won for Best Actor, Best Actress and Best Choreographer. Tim Curry played Bill Snibson in the extensive US Tour that followed the Broadway run.

Me and My Girl plays February 16 through April 8, 2012 at the Broadway Palm Dinner Theatre.  Performances are Tuesday through Sunday evenings with select matinee dates. Ticket prices range from $28 to $49 with group discounts available for parties of 16 or more.   Tickets are now on sale and can be reserved by calling (480) 325-6700, online at BroadwayPalmWest.com or by stopping by the box office at 5247 E Brown Road in Mesa.
