The Regals are proud to announce their May 2011 show: SWEET CHARITY Charity Hope Valentine, a young New Yorker, is the eternal optimist. While working at the seedy Fan-Dango ballroom, as a dance hall hostess, she is often taken advantage of and continually experiences bad relationships. She has few prospects in life but always dreams that there is something better in store for her. Tired of her disreputable, difficult existence, Charity decides to fulfil her desires and goes to an employment agency to find a respectable job. Although her efforts lead only to humiliation, she seems to have met a decent fellow in Oscar. Trying to hide her true profession, she lies to him and tells him that she works in a bank. Soon, Oscar asks Charity to marry him. Unfortunately, Oscar discovers Charity's real profession and backs out of the marriage. Nevertheless, Charity continues to remain hopeful that good things will happen in her life.
