"The Boy Friend is a jazzy spoof of 1920s musical comedies: An English heiress falls in love with a delivery boy who happens to be the son of a wealthy nobleman."
"I am very pleased that Goodspeed has chosen to produce this musical as the centerpiece of its 2005 season," Andrews said in a statement. "Goodspeed provides a wonderfully supportive environment for creating high quality productions. It's exciting to direct a production at Goodspeed and then work with their staff to bring it to audiences around the country."
Goodspeed executive director Michael P. Price noted in a statement, "As a director, Ms. Andrews combines the experiences of an unparalleled musical career with her intimate knowledge of The Boy Friend to make this classic musical sparkle. Who can imagine a better way for Goodspeed to launch its first national tour than with Julie Andrews directing The Boy Friend?" Price asked. "We plan to do this every year in an effort to bring the 'Goodspeed Experience' to cities across the country."
