DANNY and SYLVIA Celebrates One Year Anniversary At St Luke's Theatre 5/13

"DANNY and SYLVIA: THE DANNY KAYE MUSICAL" will celebrate its 1st anniversary on May 13th at off-Broadway's St. Luke's Theatre, 308 West 46th Street. To mark the event, producers Hy Juter and Edmund Gaynes announced a QUIRKY QUIZ celebrating Danny Kaye and Sylvia Fine. Are you a Court Jester? Do you seek a vessel with a pestle? Do you have a purple pimpernel in an undisclosed location? Then this Quirky Quiz is for you.

The 20 people with the most correct answers (including the tie-breaker question) will each receive a pair of complimentary tickets to the musical love story which stars Helen Hayes Award-winner Brian Childers as Danny Kaye and Kimberly Faye Greenberg as his wife and creative partner, Sylvia Fine who wrote many of his most famous songs. Directed by Pamela Hall with choreography by Gene Castle, the musical follows the duo from the time the young undisciplined comic Danny Kaminsky meets aspiring songwriter Sylvia Fine at an audition in the 1930s. Under Sylvia's guidance as mentor, manager and eventually, wife, Kaye rises from improvisational comic to international film star. The musical explores their inspired collaboration and the romance and conflict that made them such a volatile and successful couple. Many of Danny's hit songs are featured including "Tchaikovsky," "Anatole of Paris," "Minnie the Moocher" and "Deenah." The musical, which opened in NYC on May 13, 2009, has also been presented successfully in London and Washington, DC.
