Andre De Shields and Marcus Neville start up "Let It Go," The Full Monty's final number, while John Ellison Conlee and Patrick Wilson are almost down to their boxers in the same number. Attendees at the show will get to see even more.
"The Full Monty" was the surprise low-budget hit of 1997 with Oscar nominations for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay and wins with Best Music, Original Musical or Comedy Score. The musical, like the movie, tells of six average-looking unemployed men who decide to star in a strip show to raise money in their economical depressed town. The Full Monty begins previews at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre Sept. 26 with an opening set for Oct. 26. The musical opened its world premiere June 1 at San Diego's Old Globe Theatre where it ran through July 9.
