Description: This is a beautiful four-page advertising herald (flyer) promoting the Original Broadway production of the JEANINE TESORI, RICHARD MORRIS and DICK SCANLAN musical comedy "THOROUGHLY MODERN MILLIE" at the Marquis Theatre in New York City. (The production opened April 18th, 2002 and ran for 903 performances.) ..... Winner of six Tony Awards including "Best Musical", the show starred SUTTON FOSTER (Tony Award winner) in the title role, SHERYL LEE RALPH, HARRIET HARRIS (Tony Award winner), MARC KUDISCH, GAVIN CREEL, ANGELA CHRISTIAN, KEN LEUNG, FRANCIS JUE and ANN L.

Side note: Before rehearsals began, the starring role had belonged to KRISTIN CHENOWETH, the director's original choice. When Miss Chenoweth got a television series, she had to back out and her understudy ERIN DILLY was offered the role of "Millie". After the first run-through at the La Jolla Playhouse, it became clear to the director that Miss Dilly was not ideally suited for the role, and the producers plucked SUTTON FOSTER from the chorus to take over. She played "Millie" for the entire tryout engagement, which received notices encouraging enough for the producers to bring the show to Broadway. Against the recommendations of many advisors, they decided to give the starring role of the $9.5 million production to the relatively unknown 27 year-old actress who would confirm their decision when on June 2nd, 2002 she stepped onto the stage of Radio City Music Hall to accept the Tony Award for "Best Actress in a Musical" .....
