DamesAtSea

The New York Times has called Dames at Sea “a real winner, a little gem of a musical.” Critics have applauded its delightful melodies, toe-tapping rhythms, and story of love and Broadway dreams. Described as a musical for all ages, young and old, with nostalgia for the old, high camp for the young and silliness for all, Dames at Sea was a hit show of the 1968 off-Broadway season. Voted best musical by Time, Look, Newsweek, and the New York Post, Dames at Sea has enjoyed two successful New York runs. A a nifty pastiche of all those “follow the fleet down 42nd Street” musicals redolent of the old Broadway and the Hollywood era of Busby Berkley movie musicals, this spoof bursts with the nostalgia of the 1930’s as a songwriting sailor saves the show and the hometown girl finds both stardom and love.
