Remember Hazel? The sweet and salty maid with a mission? HAZEL, The MUSICAL re-visits the iconic and beloved sixties TV character who swept into the lives of the Baxter family and cleaned house. Laugh, cry and resolve to organize your closets, as you witness how one wry and witty housekeeper opens a window and airs out the secrets of one evolving American family. How she stands up to and lovingly wipes the floor with her boss, George Baxter, or "Mr. B."
