LONG BEACH, Calif. - Jan. 2, 2014 - PRLog -- It’s delightful. It’s delicious. It’s de-lovely! International City Theatre opens its 29th season with the California premiere of Let’s Misbehave: The Music and Lyrics of Cole Porter. Over 30 classic songs by Cole Porter are woven together to tell the story of three single friends in 1930s New York who make a pact to find true love. Their quest is all in good fun — until the two women, Alice and Dorothy, find they both have eyes for Walter. It’s clever, funny, and irresistibly romantic, featuring songs like “Night and Day,” “Begin the Beguine” and “Anything Goes” from one of America's most beloved and prolific musical theater composers.

“I like the fact that Let’s Misbehave isn’t just a revue,” says Shelton, an ICT regular who audiences will recognize from productions of Master Class, Ain’t Misbehavin’, Songs for a New World, Five Course Love, The Story, Honk! and Swinging on a Star. “It’s very witty and a lot of fun. All the old Cole Porter favorites we know and love are there – but there are also some obscure songs that many people won’t recognize.”

Let’s Misbehave: The Music and Lyrics of Cole Porterruns Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m., Jan. 24 through Feb. 16. Two preview performances take place on Wednesday, Jan. 22 and Thursday, Jan. 23 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $42 on Thursdays and $47 on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, except opening night (Jan. 24) for which tickets are $52 and includes a post-performance dessert reception with the actors, or $125, which also includes a pre-show dinner and short talk about Cole Porter (tables for 10 available for $1000).  Preview tickets are $32. International City Theatre is located in the Long Beach Performing Arts Center at 300 E. Ocean Blvd. in Long Beach, CA 90802. Preview performances on Jan. For reservations and information, call the ICT Box Office at 562-436-4610 or www.InternationalCityTheatre.org.
