Sweet Charity is based on Frederico Fellini’s 1957 Italian film, Nights of Cabiria (Le Notti di Cabiria). The musical comedy and 1969 film adaptation directed by Bob Fosse tell the story of an unflappable woman looking for love in New York City in the 1960’s. With a hilarious script by Pulitzer Prize winner, Neil Simon, Charity Hope Valentine tries again and again to find love and make something of herself.
