. The rarely-done show is a comic romp through the worlds of Broadway, parenting, child acting, and blind ambition. Press notes call it “the stage mother of all musicals!” Michelle Davis directs the production. Tickets are $15-$28 and may be purchased at www.act3productions.org.
Ruthless!, with book and lyrics by Joel Paley and music by Norman Laird, ran off- Broadway in 1992.
