An intimate portrayal of love, Daddy Long Legs traces the development of a young girl's emotional and intellectual growth, told in the spirit of Jane Austen, the Bront�� Sisters and Downton Abbey. From the Tony-winning director of Les Mis��rables and the creative minds behind Broadway's Jane Eyre, the story of young orphan Jerusha Abbott unfolds over the course of a long-distance relationship with the anonymous benefactor who is paying for her education. Set in the early 1900s, the musical is based on the classic novel which inspired a movie starring Fred Astaire and Leslie Caron. A hit from L.A. to London, you'll watch as Jerusha blossoms into a beautiful, intelligent and witty young woman through wonderful melodies at the Davenport Theatre.
