With all of the bad news of late, many of us seek relief in the form of light-hearted entertainment. Marriotts Ridge High School offers one solution: “The Boy Friend,” a fun and flirtatious spoof of 1920s musical comedy. More than 100 students will help bring to life this family-friendly production, which first catapulted Julie Andrews to fame in the 1950s.

Set in the French Riviera, The Boy Friend follows the romantic antics of an English heiress and her finishing school friends and promises humor, jazzy tunes, lively dancing, and the requisite happy ending.

Performances are Thursday-Saturday, March 19-21 at 7 p.m. and Sunday, March 22 at 3 p.m. Purchase tickets at the door or in advance by calling Jeanne Jurney at 301-854-5628 or e-mail jcjurney@verizon.net. Marriotts Ridge High is at 12100 Woodford Road in Marriottsville.
