A zany rich-boy-meets-hometown-girl romantic comedy, Crazy for You tells the story of young New York banker Bobby Child, who is sent to Deadrock, Nevada, to foreclose on a rundown theatre. In Deadrock, Bobby falls for spunky Polly Baker, the theater owners daughter. But Polly takes an instant dislike to the city slicker, so Bobby vows through cunning, razzmatazz, and a hilarious case of mistaken identity to win Pollys heart and save the theatre. Memorable Gershwin tunes from the score include I Got Rhythm, They Cant Take That Away from Me, Embraceable You, Nice Work if You Can Get It, and Someone to Watch Over Me.
