Something important is missing from the life of poor Polly Browne.

Maisie and Bobby dance the Charleston.	Mme. Dubonnet scolds Percival: ". . . this is no way to greet an old friend!"

Tony and Polly sing and dance "I Could Be Happy with You."	In couples, the cast sings "The Boy Friend" to close Act I.

Maisie and Dulcie sing "What a lovely day . . . For a dip in the sea."	Marcel and Pierre enjoy the view!

Fay: "There's no knowing . . . Who you are going . . . To meet sur le Plage."	Lord Brockhurst admires the view while comforting Lady Brockhurst.

Tony and Polly envision "A room . . . In Bloomsbury" . . .	. . . and dance with joy.

Hortense sings "It's Nicer in Nice," backed up by the boys and girls.	Maisie feels that there's "Safety in Numbers."

Mme. Dubonnet coaxes Percy into dancing.	Lady Brockhurst rocks "The Riviera."

Lord Brockhurst tells Dulcie, "I may be too old to run a mile."	But, "It's never too late to have a fling."

Tony/Pierrot loves Polly/Pierrette, and all is well.	The carnival ball ends with general rejoicing.

The musicians take a break between acts.	Director and Lighting Designer hold a consultation.
