"... splendid sparkling musical..." British Theatre Guide 

It’s the roaring 20’s, Millie Dillmount from Kansas, steps off the train into a New York city filled with speakeasies, frivolous flappers and the pulsating sounds of syncopated jazz. America has thrown off its inhibitions and anything goes! Millie’s ‘modern’ plan is to work in a typing pool and marry the wealthy boss. But then she meets and falls in love with Jimmy, a man without a dime to his name... or so she thinks.

Filled with characters you’ll love, some you’ll love to hate, and great musical numbers, this high-energy, romantic comedy took Broadway by storm, winning six Tony Awards, including Best Musical. From the creative team behind The Watermill’s sell-out production of Radio Times
