Hans Friedrichs stages the theatrical valentine to the daffy musicals of the Jazz Age, which runs through Feb. 20. Robert Earle Jones produces the engagement.

Treubert is cast as Man in Chair, with Branan as Janet Van De Graaff, Juvier (Les Miserables on Broadway) as Adolpho and Lampert (Top of the Heap) as the Chaperone. The cast also features Jennifer DiDonato, Tauren Hagans, Robert Anthony Jones, Aaron J. Libby, Jake Mendes, Trey Mitchell, Jan-Peter Pedross, Colin Pritchard, Megan Rosenblatt, Chloe Sabin, Dawn Trautman, Tyler Wallach and Eric Weaver.

The Drowsy Chaperone has choreography by Christine O’Grady and musical direction by Kevin Lawson. The creative team includes Jared Rutherford (scenic design), Ryan J. Moller (costume design), Brad Peterson (lighting design), Kim Fuhr-Carbone (sound design) and Jon Jordan (wig design).

The Drowsy Chaperone spins to life as the Man in Chair, an impassioned theatre enthusiast, plays one of his favorite records for the audience. The musical is a madcap satirical romp through a jazz-age 1920s musical where the characters and real life merge with comic results. The musical earned Tony Awards for Best Book and Best Score.
