This charming musical is based on the 1912 novel of the same name, written by Jean Webster. Set in turn-of-the-century New England, Daddy Long Legs tells the story of Jerusha Abbott, the oldest orphan in the John Grier Home. A mysterious benefactor agrees to send her to college under the condition that she writes him a letter once a month. Through this correspondence, she shares her experiences of discovering literature, adventure, love and self. Not knowing the identity of her sponsor, she writes to him under the nickname "Daddy Long Legs."
