Photos: First Look At TOOTSIE At North Shore Music Theatre
See first look photos of TOOTSIE, playing at North Shore Music Theatre through August 25. Inspired by the hit 1982 movie starring Dustin Hoffman, TOOTSIE is the laugh-out-loud love letter to the theatre telling the story of Michael Dorsey, a talented but difficult actor who struggles to find work until one show-stopping act of desperation lands him the role of a lifetime. Featuring a hilarious Tony® Award-winning book by Robert Horn (Shucked) and an outrageously clever score by David Yazbek (The Full Monty, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels), TOOTSIE is a joyful show so packed with punchlines, it should be called a “jokebox” musical!
