Crazy For You -- with a book by famed comedic playwright Ken Ludwig, lyrics by Ira Gershwin and music by George Gershwin -- is the classic tale of a boy, a girl, and a theater in need of salvation. With a fast-paced and light-hearted script by Ludwig, and a collection of the most beloved tunes of George and Ira Gershwin, Crazy For You is a truly delightful homage to the beloved, optimistic musicals of the 1930s: a world of showgirls and cowboys, in which a city boy and a country girl reconcile their differences, fall in love, and save a theater, the old-fashioned way. Crazy for You won the 1992 Tony Award for Best Musical. Music and Lyrics by George Gershwin and Ira Gershwin. Book by Ken Ludwig. Co-Conception by Ken Ludwig and Mike Ockrent. Inspired by material by Guy Bolton and John McGowan. Originally produced on Broadway by Roger Horchow and Elizabeth Williams. Original Broadway Choreography by Susan Stroman.
