Shorecrest musical production Thoroughly Modern Millie


Its 1922, and small-town girl Millie Dillmount has just arrived in New York City, ready to make her dreams come true. Millie's plan is simple: find a job as a secretary for an eligible bachelor, and then marry him. It doesn't take long, however, for Millie's thoroughly modern plan to go awry. Her conniving landlady plots to kidnap Millie's best friend and sell her into slavery in Hong Kong, her wealthy boss seems entirely uninterested in her flirtations, and -- worst of all -- the man with whom she falls head over heels in love doesn't have a penny to his name.

The winner of six Tony Awards including Best Musical, Thoroughly Modern Millie was the 2002 season’s most awarded new show on Broadway! Based on the 1967 Academy Award-winning film, Thoroughly Modern Millie takes you back to the height of the Jazz Age in New York City, when “moderns” including a flapper named Millie Dillmount were bobbing their hair, raising their hemlines, entering the workforce, and rewriting the rules of love. This high-spirited musical romp is a delightful valentine to the long-standing spirit of New York City and the people who seek to discover themselves there.
