SIDNEY — The Sidney Dance Company will present “42nd Street,” which will open at the Historic Sidney Theatre on Friday, March 6, at 7 p.m. Additional performances will be Saturday, March 7, at 2 and 7 p.m. as well as Sunday, March 8, at 2 p.m.

Set in 1933, “42nd Street” is the story of a young aspiring actress, Peggy Sawyer, from Pennsylvania, who goes to Manhattan following her dream. She’s just another chorus girl in the glamorous Broadway show “Pretty Lady” directed by a big-time director, Julian Marsh, and starring the famous Dorothy Brock. However, when Dorothy breaks her ankle, Peggy gets her chance to shine and fulfill her dream.

“42nd Street” is an American musical with a book by Michael Stewart and Mark Bramble, lyrics by Al Dubin and Johnny Mercer and music by Harry Warren. The 1981 Tony Award winner for Best Musical, “42nd Street” is based on the novel by Bradford Ropes and its subsequent 1933 Hollywood film adaptation.

The Sidney Dance Company is grateful for its community partners who support its productions: Kettering Health Network, Emerson Climate Technologies, Minster Bank, Airstream, Picture Perfect, Eikenberry & Associates, Raise the Roof for the Arts and all participating parents and volunteers.
