I saw this at the El Portal last year, (thanks to Goldstar too!), it's got a different cast, but the show remains a delight, a warm and delightful send-up of a time and musical era when songs made you feel good and love made the world go round. Don't miss it!Written on Sep 01 2008

- "It's tremendously fun!" --Variety
- "...stepping back into an age of innocence, even for two hours, seems like the perfect antidote to our turbulent times." --Orange County Register
Description
The Marvelous Wonderettes ran for more than a year in North Hollywood and is headed to New York for an Off-Broadway run, but the Laguna Playhouse audiences get to see this “must-take trip down memory lane” first.
The Marvelous Wonderettes brings audiences back to the 1958 Springfield High School prom where they 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! As they talk and sing about their lives and loves, audiences are treated to the girls performing such songs as “Lollipop,” “Dream Lover,” “Stupid Cupid,” “Lipstick on Your Collar,” “It’s My Party,” “It’s In His Kiss” and many more.
Written and directed by Roger Bean.
