WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
This sassy, brassy musical spectacular is the stage remake of the classic 1933 movie. The famous Leading Lady breaks her ankle just before the show's big opening on Broadway. Can the Understudy save the show at the last minute and become a star? This Cinderella story of Broadway is an exhilarating extravaganza of show business at its greatest. Winner of the Tony Award in 1981 for Best Musical, 42nd Street's songs include "We're In The Money," "Shuffle Off To Buffalo," and "Lullaby of Broadway."
Patrick Cassidy and Blair Ross co- star in the Tony® Award-winning Broadway musical. Ross plays the diva Dorothy Brock and Cassidy is her tyrannical director Julian Marsh.

It is a great feat, indeed, to offer a revival of a show that matches and occasionally surpasses the original production, especially when the memory of the original is still reasonably fresh in theatergoers' minds. After all, David Merrick's 42nd Street opened in 1980 and ran for eight-and-a-half years (3,486 performances). For the 42nd Street now playing at the Ford Center for the Performing Arts, the fact that a large percentage of the audience can vividly recall the original is a double-edged sword. Familiarity with the first production and warm feelings about it are great for marketing purposes, but those same feelings could have sunk the new staging if it didn't measure up. The revival [...]
