Thoroughly Modern Millie March 15, 2007

In a startling contrast to Tevye, country bumpkin Millie Dillmount embraces change in an effort to improve her lot in life. In true flapper fashion, she bobs her hair, raises her hem and moves from the Corn Belt to the Big Apple, convinced that she will get what she wants by marrying a rich man. The problem is that old-fashioned love and white slavery get in the way. Based on the l967 Oscar-winning film of the same name, 'Thoroughly Modern Millie' was 2002s most honored show on Broadway, winning six Tony Awards, including best musical.
