"Would be flapper, Millie Dillmount, arrives in NYC during the roaring twenties with the ambition of getting a secretarial job with a rich handsome boss whom she'll marry. But instead she falls for the penniless Jimmy Smith & after a series of adventures including the uncovering of a white slavery operation run by her landlady, Mrs. Meers, Millie forsakes her employer Trevor Graydon & accepts Jimmy who turns out to be an heir in
disguise."
  
This Comedy won the 2002 Tony Award for Best Musical & features some fabulously original tap & jazz numbers.
