Kemptville Youth Musical Theatre Company
TICKETS ON SALE NOW!
The Kemptville Youth Musical Theatre Company presents The Drowsy Chaperone at the Urbandale Arts Centre.
Winner of five Tony Awards, including Best Book and Best Original Score, The Drowsy Chaperone is a Canadian musical that's a loving send-up of the Golden Age musical, featuring one show-stopping song and dance number after another.
With the houselights down, a man in a chair appears on stage and puts on his favorite record: the cast recording of a fictitious 1928 musical. The recording comes to life and The Drowsy Chaperone begins as the man in the chair looks on. Mix in two lovers on the eve of their wedding, a bumbling best man, a desperate theatre producer, a not-so-bright hostess, two gangsters posing as pastry chefs, a misguided Don Juan and a stumbling chaperone, and you have the ingredients for an evening of madcap delight.
The Kemptville Youth Musical Theatre Company (KYMTC) is a not-for-profit, volunteer-based, musical theatre group. Youth from grade 7 to age 19 are welcome to audition for, and participate in, our musical theatre productions, staged at the Urbandale Arts Centre in the North Grenville Municipal Centre. We usually perform our Main Show in the spring. We also offer a Summer Camp program for children in Grades 2-8, staging a show at the end of the 4 week program.
