MON., JULY 16,1990
Theatergoers in Tryon have the
opportunity to enjoy one of the
most successful off-Broadway
stage shows “Little Mary
Sunshine." It played to packed
houses for almost three years.
Billed as “a musical about an old
operetta” it is a musical spoof of
old-time favorites like “Rose
Marie" and “Naughty Marietta.”
Deliberately corny songs and
naive situations poke fun at the
cliches of the innocent musicals
of yesterday. There are 24 songs
including thundering choruses,
schmaltzy waltzes and liting
duets — all kidding and all in fun.
The plot offers a little bit of
everything: Colorado Rangers, a
stalwart Captain, a lovely Mary,
a chorus of simpering school girls
and a villainous Indian
The young heroes, seen above,
are Megan Wallace of Landrum
and Drew Brannon of Tryon.
Both are students at Spartanburg
