Based on the 1967 film by Richard Morris, Thoroughly Modern Millie has a book by Dick Scanlan and Richard Morris, new music by Jeanine Tesori and new lyrics by Scanlan. The musical, according to the Muny, "tells the story of a small-town girl, Millie Dillmount, who comes to New York City to marry for money instead of love — a thoroughly modern aim in 1922, when women were just entering the workforce."

Here's a look at the production and opening night:
