2nd Star Productions at the Bowie Playhouse

This Broadway hit tells the story of Philadelphia’s wealthy Lord family as they get ready for the wedding of Tracy Lord, a headstrong and spoiled daughter of the privileged. A merry mix up of who’s who at the house is just the beginning as reports try to get the story and the bride tries to find her way to a normal life. The audience gets to find out who she eventually walks down the aisle with! Katherine Hepburn starred in both the Broadway plan and its film adaptation, and in 1956 it was adapted into an MGM musical film, High Society, with Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Grace Kelly, and Louis Armstrong.
