Oscar and Emmy Award-winner Julie Andrews directs The Boy Friend. Having made its Broadway debut in 1954 with Andrews as its star, The Boy Friend is a jazzy spoof of 1920s musical comedies: English heiress falls in love with delivery boy… and he happens to be the son of a wealthy nobleman. In the original staging, Andrews portrayed the role of Polly Browne. This musical comedy by Sandy Wilson lovingly spoofs the musical comedies of the 1920s.
