International City Theatre presents the Los Angeles premiere of a foot-stompin’, knee-slappin’ musical inspired by Shakespeare's Measure for Measure. Saddle up for this joyous musical comedy with a score by award-winning composer David Friedman and book and lyrics by two-time Tony nominee Peter Kellogg. When the dangerously handsome Johnny Blood’s life is on the line, he must put his fate into the hands of a colorful cast of characters. Laws are broken and hearts are won as they try to find justice in a world that often doesn’t seem just. Winner of two Drama Desk Awards, for “Outstanding Musical” and “Outstanding Lyrics”; the Outer Critics Circle Award for “Outstanding New Off-Broadway Musical”; and the Off-Broadway Alliance Award for “Best New Musical.” International City Theatre at the Long Beach Convention & Entertainment Center, 330 E.
