New York City Center concludes its Encores! 2020 season with a new take on Dick Scanlan and Jeanine Tesori’s Thoroughly Modern Millie, directed by Lear deBessonet and starring Ashley Park.
Performances take place at New York City Center's Mainstage.
Thoroughly Modern Millie is a raise-the-roof tribute to the indomitable spirit of New York and the diverse people who call it home. Determined to make it in the Big Apple, Millie is kept on her tap-dancing toes in this Jazz Age inspired romp featuring showstopping numbers like “Forget About the Boy” and “Gimme Gimme.” This new production will explore the work with a fresh perspective to deliver a thoroughly modern Thoroughly Modern Millie.
