“Thoroughly Modern Millie” is high-spirited musical romp that has all of New York dancing the Charleston. It is the story of a small-town girl, Millie Dillmount, who comes to New York City in 1922 at the height of the Wall Street boom. She bobs her hair, assumes the modern look of a "flapper," and is determined to marry for money instead of love – a thoroughly modern aim in 1922 when women were just entering the workforce. The show is filled with great songs, fabulous dance numbers and of course, a great love story.
Theatre Under the Stars is a Vancouver summer tradition – come enjoy the music, the magic and the fun with your family, located at Malkin Bowl in Stanley Park.
