Michael Riedel reports in the New York Post this morning that make no mistake about it - Robin and the 7 Hoods, which opened at San Deigo's Old Globe Theatre last Friday, July 30, is coming to town, at least if the widow of the show's lyricist has anything to do with it. Robin and the 7 Hoods, which garnered lukewarm reviews out west, features the music of Sammy Cahn and Jimmy Van Heusen, including the songs 'My Kind of Town,' 'Call Me Irresponsible,' 'Ain't That a Kick in the Head,' 'All the Way' and more. Cahn was Frank Sinatra's preferred lyricist and member of the famed 'Rat Pack.'
On Friday, July 30, the much anticipated, Broadway-bound ROBIN AND THE 7 HOODS opened at The Old Globe Theatre in San Diego. Emily Loftiss for BroadwayWorld was on hand for the celebratory evening, and went inside the after party to check in with the cast and crew. Click below for an exclusive peak at the night!
