HIGH SOCIETY is Cole Porter's classic feel-good musical based on The Philadelphia Story and the film musical starring Bing Crosby, Grace Kelly and Frank Sinatra. Tracy Lord, a wealthy socialite, is planning her lavish summer wedding when her ex-husband appears to try and win her back. When charming tabloid reporter Mike Connor arrives to cover the nuptials, he too takes a shine to the bride-to-be. As the day of the wedding draws closer, who will the bride choose? You're invited to the wedding of the year, and what a swell party it's going to be! Featuring hit songs including "Let’s Misbehave," "Just One of Those Things," "True Love" and the unforgettable "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?," you too will fall in love with Broadway's dazzling musical comedy, HIGH SOCIETY.
