Cole Porter, Herbert Fields, and B.G. DeSylva’s classic 1939 musical comedy 'DuBarry Was a Lady' stands as an undisputed champion of golden-era American escapism, running for an astonishing 408 performances at the 46th Street Theatre. The fast-paced farcical plot centers on Louis Blore, a humble washroom attendant at a glamorous New York nightclub who unexpectedly wins a multi-million dollar lottery, collapsing into a deep sleep after an accidental drugging and dreaming he is King Louis XV courting the sultry Madame du Barry in Versailles. This tracking features the original choreography blueprints of Robert Alton, starring stage royalty Ethel Merman and Bert Lahr.
