"The Drowsy Chaperone" (Westwego)

Sept. 30-Oct. 16, at Westwego Performing Arts Theatre, 177 Sala Ave, Suite A. (504) 371-3330. Tickets are $30 adults, $27 senior citizens, $20 students and $15 for children age 12 and under. A die-hard musical theatre fan plays his favorite cast album, a 1928 smash hit called “The Drowsy Chaperone,” and the show magically bursts to life. The audience is immersed in the rambunctious tale of a brazen Broadway starlet trying to find and keep her true love. Includes tunes “Show Off,” “The Cold Feets” and “Toledo Surprise.”
