WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
The York's hit production of Enter Laughing returns!
This hilarious and tuneful musical comedy is set in 1930's New York City, where nothing will keep aspriring actor David Kolowitz from his dreams of Broadway stardom--not his overly protective parents, not his demanding girlfriends and certainly not his severe lack of talent! Based onCarl Reiner's autobiographical novel, Enter Laughing boasts a delightful score by Stan Daniels and libretto by the Broadway master Joseph Stein, based on his play (and the movie by Stein and Reiner). A stellar cast and creative team, headed by director Stuart Ross bring this romp to life! No parody of musical comedy, this is the genuine article--a heartfelt, side-splitting laugh fest!
