Synopsis:
A crowd-pleaser for audiences from eight to eighty, Daddy Long Legs is touring the USA where it has received standing ovations at every performance. Set in the early 1900s in New england, Daddy Long Legs is the vivid account of a young orphan as she blossoms into a beautiful, intelligent and vivacious woman. An anonymous benefactor gives Jerusha Abbott an opportunity to attend college, requiring that she write to him monthly, even though he will not respond. Her letters to him paint a moving portrait of her former life in the orphanage, and the development of her mind and spirit. the lush set and costumes are by Olivier Award-winner David Farley. Daddy Long Legs won more awards than any other musical at last year's Ovation Awards in Los Angeles.
