Our staff pick for the summer! City slicker falls for hometown girl in this romantic comedy featuring cowboys, showgirls, high-energy production numbers, and a glorious score from George and Ira Gershwin. 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 theatre owner’s 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 Polly’s heart and save the theatre. Memorable Gershwin tunes from the score include “I Got Rhythm,” “Naughty Baby,” “They Can’t Take That Away from Me,” “Embraceable You,” “But Not for Me,” “Nice Work If You Can Get It” and “Someone to Watch Over Me.” Directed by Allison Books. Music Direction by Allison Books. Choreography by Rebecca Boberg. Winner! Three 1992 Tony Awards, including Best Musical
Winner! Two 1992 Drama Desk Awards, including Outstanding Musical
Winner! Three 1992 Outer Critics Circle Awards including Outstanding Broadway Musical
