​
Footlights presented a stripped-down production of this classic musical with just piano and a cast of fifteen at the Gryphon Theatre. While social distancing requirements reduced house sizes, audiences were treated to a close-up experience with the stage oriented lengthwise for shallower rows, and seated drinks service.
