The musical features classic 50's and 60's hits including "Lollipop," "Dream Lover," "Stupid Cupid," "Son of a Preacher Man," "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me" and "It’s My Party."

Created, written and originally directed by Roger Bean, the previous New York production played at Off-Broadway's Westside Theatre September 2008-January 2010. Here's how the show is billed: "The Marvelous Wonderettes takes a cotton-candied colored musical trip down memory lane to the 1958 Springfield High School prom where we meet 'The Wonderettes,' four girls with hopes and dreams as big as their crinoline skirts! We experience their lives and loves from prom night to their 10-year reunion as told through more than 20 chart topping hits of the era!"

The creative team includes The Marvelous Wonderettes original costume designer, Tony nominee Bobby Pearce, along with Alex Ringler (choreography); William Wade (music direction); Billy Davis (set design); Shawn Boyle (lights); Jen Bullock (wigs); and Krystal Roccaro (stage manager.)

Tickets can be purchased at The Theatre Row box office, located at 410 W. 42nd St., Manhattan, or through Telecharge.com.
