Theater critic J. Wynn Rousuck talks with Tom Hall about the Tony Award-winning musical, “Thoroughly Modern Millie,” adapted from the 1967 movie of the same name. Can a girl from Kansas become a modern woman in 1920s New York? Can the stage musical improve on director George Roy Hill’s movie starring Julie Andrews? Rousuck has gone to Cockpit in Court to find the answers.
“Thoroughly Modern Millie” continues through Sunday at the summer theater on the Essex campus of the Community College of Baltimore County.
