Meet Me in St. Louis (Winter 2021)
Clang, clang, clang went the trolley! Closing the 24th season is the beloved musical adaptation of Meet Me in St. Louis, based on the heartwarming MGM film starring Judy Garland. It is the summer of 1903, and the Smith family eagerly anticipates the opening of the 1904 World’s Fair. Over the course of a year, the family’s mutual respect, tempered with good-natured humor, helps them through romance, opportunity, and heartbreaks. The musical includes seven of the best-loved songs from the film, plus ten additional Martin and Blane songs written specially for the stage including Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, The Boy Next Door, The Trolley Song, and Whenever I’m with You. Meet Me in St. Louis is a rare treasure in the musical theatre; a wholesome and delightful portrait of a turn-of-the-century American family.
