ARIZONA THEATRE COMPANY EXTENDS HEARTWARMING NEW MUSICAL DADDY LONG LEGS
Due to audience demand, Arizona Theatre Company has added two performances of Daddy Long Legs on Sunday, December 18, at 2:00 PM and Wednesday, December 21, at 7:30 PM.
Daddy Long Legs tells the story of a young girl's Cinderella journey into womanhood, as well as a confirmed bachelor's awakening into love. Charming and lighthearted, this new musical about falling in love with life begins when an orphanage trustee offers a college education to an 18-year old girl. His only request is that she must never know who he is and that she write to him monthly, though he will never respond.
Told through a series of letters between Jerusha Abbott, the oldest orphan at the John Grier Home, and Jervis Pendleton, her mysterious benefactor, Daddy Long Legs is a testament to the power of the written word based on the beloved 1912 novel by Jean Webster that has been read for generations. This award-winning musical love story has been lauded for its innocence, its sheer beauty, and its depth of emotion, not to mention its magnificent musical score. Winner of three prestigious Ovation Awards including Best Book, Best Score and Lead Actress in an Original Musical, Daddy Long Legs is an enthralling event for the whole family.
Daddy Long Legs is playing now at the Temple of Music and Art in downtown Tucson. For more information or to purchase tickets, contact the ATC Box Office at (520) 622-2823 or visit www.arizonatheatre.org.
