Crazy for You is described as follows: "Bobby Child, a musical-loving banker sent to foreclose on a small-town theater decides to revive it instead with the magic of the Follies, some slapstick comedy and a whole lot of charm. Crazy for You is flush with mistaken identities, a classic love story, tap numbers and George and Ira Gershwin’s glorious songs including 'I’ve Got Rhythm,' 'Someone to Watch Over Me,' 'Embraceable You,' and 'Nice Work If You Can Get It.' "

The creative team includes musical director Jon Kalbfleisch, scenic designer Paul Tate dePoo III, lighting designer Jason Lyons, costume designer Tristan Raines, sound designer Ryan Hickey, wig designer Leah Loukas, associate director Kelly D’Amboise, associate choreographer Robbie Roby, fight choreographer Casey Kaleba, production stage manager Kerry Epstein, assistant stage manager Jessica Skelton, and New York Casting by Laura Stancyzk, CSA.
