In Gay New Orleans (1946 Tryout) - repro
Choose options
The legendary and ill-fated 1946 musical property 'In Gay New Orleans' infamously collapsed, encountered critical hostility, and closed during its out-of-town pre-Broadway tryout engagement at Boston's Shubert Theatre, never reaching its planned New York debut. Featuring an inventive, rhythm-and-blues infused operetic score by the iconic composer subscriber, the grand-scale historical romance unfolds inside the sweltering French Quarter of Louisiana in 1890, tracking a star-crossed romance between a beautiful creole singer and a dashing writer. Directed by master independent showmen, this project remains a top-tier rarity.
