Its sizable score showcases strong singers, including a mature operatic baritone and a young soprano ingénue for the two lead roles. The rest of the large cast consists of a winsome comic duo for the secondary leads and a host of other compelling characters. The show?s lasting popularity has led to two Broadway revivals, the latter with a two-piano accompaniment that is available for rental.
