Based on the 1967 Oscar winning film, Thoroughly Modern Millie is the story of Millie, a young girl from Kansas who comes to New York in search of a nwe life for herself in the 'Roaring 20's'. She has a plan - to get a good job as a secretary to a very rich man, and then marry him. Of course nothing quite goes according to plan - the owner of her dingy hotel kidnaps young girls to sell to the Far East, her very rich boss is slow in proposing marriage, and the guy she actually falls in love with is as poor as a church mouse.

Great show stopping numbers and fabulous dance routines, together with hilarious kidnap sequences makes this a great night out at the theatre. Millie is suitable for all ages.

Thoroughly Modern Millie continues to sell out on Broadway - currently at the Marquis Theatre - winning 6 'Tony' Awards including 'Best Musical' for 2002!
