The dangers of a workplace romance are explored to hysterical effect in this romantic comedy from the creators of “Damn Yankees.” Conditions at the Sleep-Tite Pajama Factory are anything but peaceful, as sparks fly between new superintendent Sid Sorokin and Babe Williams, leader of the union grievance committee. Their stormy relationship comes to a head when the workers strike for a 7½-cent pay increase, setting off not only a conflict between management and labor, but a battle of the sexes as well.
The Pajama Game went on to become one of the most successful Broadway shows in the history of the theatre: it played in excess of a thousand performances on Broadway and was later made into a highly successful motion picture starring Doris Day. Five Towns College present a modern adaptation of this classic Broadway musical, that features songs and dance styles with some Broadway favorites such as “There Once Was a Man,” “Hernando’s Hideaway,” and “Steam Heat.”
