2. Daddy Long Legs

A witty and winsome young woman`s wishes are answered when an anonymous gentleman she nicknames Daddy Long Legs gives her the opportunity to leave her orphanage and attend university. In return, Jerusha shares her life with her unknown benefactor through treasured letters as she grows into an intelligent and independent woman and experiences a budding romance with a young suitor. This heartwarming new musical has charmed audiences of all ages from London to New York. Based on the classic novel that inspired the 1955 movie starring Fred Astaire, Daddy Long Legs was created by Tony Award winner John Caird (Les Miserables) and Tony Award-nominee Paul Gordon (Jane Eyre). This Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle Award nominee was described by Stage Scene LA as “one of the most enthralling, entertaining and moving love stories on the American musical theater stage.”
