The Musical of Musicals (The Musical!)

Take one simple plot: an innocent waif, her charming and heroic suitor, a menacing landlord…and rent that’s past due! Then rewrite the story in five different styles, as though it were penned by the most famous Broadway composers and lyricists of all time: Rodgers and Hammerstein, Stephen Sondheim, Kander and Ebb, Andrew Lloyd Webber and Jerry Herman. What ensues is a side-splitting evening of clever send-ups and faithful tributes to that wonderful world of musical theatre in this deft and daffy show that took New York by storm.
