August 2007
-5 Aberdeen Community Theatre presents it's summer musical "The Pajama Game"; Capitol Theatre, 415 S Main St; Tuesday-Saturday, July 31-August 4 at 7:30 pm & Sunday, August 5 at 2:30 pm; The dangers of a workplace romance are explored in this Tony-Award winning romantic musical comedy. Conditions at the Sleep-Tite Pajama Factory are anything but peaceful, as sparks fly between new superintendent Sid Sorokin and Babe Williams, leader of the union grievance committee. Their stormy relationship comes to a head when the workers strike for a 7½-cent pay increase, setting off not only a conflict between management and labor, but a battle of the sexes as well. Bright and brassy, this unconventional, fast-paced Broadway favorite is brimming with songs and dances, which have become popular and features plenty of splashy, fun production numbers. Last year's Broadway production won the Tony Award again, this time for Best Revival! For more information contact the Aberdeen Community Theatre at 605-225-2228
