Photo Flash: 42nd Street Moon's SOMETHING FOR THE BOYS Begins Tonight
42nd Street Moon presents a 20th Anniversary edition of one of its earliest hits -- the hilarious farceSOMETHING FOR THE BOYS, tonight, November 26 - December 14, 2014. Press opening is set for November 29. Scroll down for a sneak peek at the cast!
In this rollicking musical with music and lyrics by Cole Porter, book by Dorothy Fields and Herbert Fields, three unlikely cousins, (including one who picks up radio waves with her teeth) inherit a San Antonio Ranch. Despite their lack of familiarity with each other, the cousins join together to transform the ranch into a boarding house for soldier's wives. Romantic and military complications quickly arise. The top drawer Porter songs include The Leader of a Big-Time Band, Something for the Boys, Could It Be You?, Hey, Good Lookin', By the Mississinewah, and He's a Right Guy.
SOMETHING FOR THE BOYS will be directed by Daniel Witzke, with music direction by Dave Dobrusky and choreography by Staci Arriaga.
