Travel to the 1958 Springfield High School prom where we meet the Wonderettes: Betty Jean, Cindy Lou, Missy and Suzy, four girls with hopes and dreams as big as their crinoline skirts and voices to match. This cotton-candy colored pop musical blast from the past features the classic songs from the ’50s and ’60s including “Lollipop,” “It’s My Party” and “It’s In His Kiss.” With the original New York director and choreographer and members of the off-Broadway cast.
The musical foursome at the center of the play will be played by Lindsay Mendez as Betty Jean, Lowe Taylor as Cindy Lou, Misty Cotton as Missy and Bets Malone as Suzy (don't you love the names!). Malone, is a member of the original cast of "The Marvelous Wonderettes" but is familiar to Sacramentans as Martha Jefferson from "1776" and Hodel in "Fiddler on the Roof." Cotton, whose New York credits includes "Miss Saigon" returns to Music Circus where she was The Narrator in "Joseph ..." and Philia in "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum." Mendez returns to the tent for the first time since the premiere of "Footloose." Her Broadway credits includes playing Jan in the revival of "Grease." Roger Bean, the creator of the show, will direct in collaboration with original choreographer and musical director, Janet Miller and Michael Borth, respectively.
