Our most popular franchise is back for their farewell tour! It’s 1969 and The Marvelous Wonderettes return to Springfield High (Go Chipmunks!) to throw a retirement party for their favorite homeroom teacher. As the girls sing their way through the greatest girl-group hits of the 60s and bid Ms. McPherson a happy start to a new beginning, one of the Wonderettes reveals she’ll also be saying goodbye. It looks like the group will be breaking up, bidding farewell to the decade and the end of an era. But never fear, Act Two finds the girls back together as the class of 1958 celebrates their 20-year reunion. The classic pop/rock hits of the 70s provide the perfect soundtrack for these old friends to catch up on the places life has led them, in the ultimate reunion concert! Come hear the girls sing the songs you used to party to, as Petula Clark, Diana Ross, and all the classic girl groups make way for the new sounds of Linda Ronstadt, Karen Carpenter, Kiki Dee, Helen Reddy, The Captain & Tennille, Thelma Houston, and Gloria Gaynor. Don’t miss the final installment. It may be farewell but you really Never Can Say Goodbye to everyone’s favorite girl group, the Marvelous Wonderettes!
