High Society
by Philip Barry Adapted by Carolyn Burns
Melbourne Theatre Company Production 1992
The Musical is based on the Philip Barry play The Philadelphia Story and the musical screen adaptation it inspired, High Society, the plot centres on pretentious Long Island socialite Tracy Lord, who is planning a June 1938 wedding to an equally pretentious executive when ex-husband Dexter Haven arrives to disrupt the proceedings. Additional comic complications arise when tabloid reporter Mike Connor, who is there to cover the wedding, also falls for the bride-to-be. The score's songs were compiled from various Porter musicals; in some instances, updated or new lyrics were provided by Susan Birkenhead.
