The Hexagon, Reading

 

Music by Jeanine Tesori   Lyrics by Dick Scanlan
Book by Richard Morris and Dick Scanlan
Based on the 1967 film of the same name

 

Thoroughly Modern Millie tells the story of a small-town girl, Millie Dillmount, who comes to New York City to marry for money instead of love – a thoroughly modern aim in 1922, when women were just entering the workforce. Millie soon begins to take delight in the flapper lifestyle, but problems arise when she checks into a hotel owned by the leader of a slavery ring in China.
