Tootsie
About the Show. Michael Dorsey is a skilled actor with a talent for not keeping a job. Desperate and out-of-work, Michael makes a last-ditch effort to make his dreams come true. He disguises himself as actress Dorothy Michaels. In a meteoric rise to Broadway stardom, Dorothy soon has audiences falling at her feet while Michael (disguised as Dorothy) is falling for his co-star, Julie. It isn’t long before Michael realizes that maintaining his greatest acting success is going to be much harder than he expected. Based on the movie, TOOTSIE, was hailed as “Broadway’s funniest new musical!” by The New York Post. The show received 11 Tony Award nominations and won for Best Book of a Musical.
