BWW Reviews: Goodspeed Scores Good Fun with GOOD NEWS to Field 50th

It's a simple tale, mostly predictable, but somehow perfect for the Goodspeed stage. It's light, fun and lends itself to big dance numbers and colorful costumes (Tracy Christensen, design), though nothing just smacks of the '20s, interestingly.
