Little Theatre Musical revue Music and Lyrics by Joyce Stoner. Original book concept by Karen Johnson. Additional music and arrangements by William Boswell. 3 m., 3 f. Minimal set. Six singers march in wearing evening garb. They become auditioners for a show within a show, simulating two theater innocents, a couple of roommates and an unlucky married couple. The story celebrates the dubious "joys" of Manhattan life and also includes broader social satire, such as the American male's addiction to football and inflation. Requires only one piano, minimal set and few costumes. "Tonic effect is marvelous. Fresh as a daisy, sharp as a tack and as funny as it is fast."-- N.Y. Times. "Wholesome and charming and thoroughly good natured ... clever."-- N.Y. Daily News. Terms quoted on application. Music available on rental.
