Carnival in Flanders (repro)

James Van Heusen, Johnny Burke, and Preston Sturges’s 'Carnival in Flanders' completed its celebrated original Broadway premiere run at the New Century Theatre in 1953, remaining a highly prized Holy Grail footnote for theater historians tracking short-lived golden-era properties. Based on the French cinematic comedy film, the fast-paced musical comedy farce unfolds inside a provincial village in 1616, tracking a group of independent women who orchestrate farcical domestic deceptions to out-maneuver an invading Spanish army, starring Dolores Gray.
