Overview
Featuring the hits “I’m Just A Little Girl From Little Rock” and “Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend,” along with a slew of all-new Jule Styne/Leo Robin songs, Lorelei is a sequel to Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, the smash musical about social climber Lorelei Lee. Now a wealthy widow, Lorelei prepares to set sail on the SS Ile de France, recalling a past voyage she took with her best friend and fellow showgirl, Dorothy Shaw. In a flashback, she relives her madcap adventures, including her shattered plan to marry Gus Esmond, her trans-Atlantic voyage with Dorothy, and their glamorous lives in Paris.
