About the Show

A revival of the nostalgic revue, set at a 1958 high school prom where we meet The Wonderettes, four girls with hopes and dreams as big as their crinoline skirts.

Cliched, Dated, Funny, Great singing, Fluffy

See it if you enjoy music from the 50s/60s with some great harmonising. Enjoy revue type shows with only a little plot holding it together.

Entertaining, Cliched, Endearing, Fun, Campy

See it if You love Doo Wop & 50's music. A fun, campy evening of 50's song & dance well performed by four disparate, energetic & very talented women.

Don't see it if You hate camp, 50's music, Girl Groups or tight, stop on a dime harmonies and predictable if entertaining plots in this well-directed romp. Read more

Funny, Original, 1st act stronger than 2nd act, Good singing, Quaint

See it if You are a big fan of 50s and 60s popular tunes, and you enjoy shows with some audience participation, which added to the level of humor.

Don't see it if You prefer musicals with original scores, as opposed to shows with pop songs.

Entertaining

See it if You like hearing 1960s songs sung live by a cast of 4 women.

Don't see it if You're looking for nuanced characters as they are pretty one-dimensional.

Great acting, Entertaining, Great singing

See it if You want to be thoroughly entertained by a great cast of talented performers. This is a fun show,light on content,but with terrific oldies.
