The legendary, short-lived 1956 musical comedy 'The Amazing Adele' infamously collapsed and closed during its out-of-town tryout at Boston's Shubert Theatre, never reaching its planned Broadway debut. Featuring music and lyrics by Albert Selden and a book by Anita Loos, the musical adapted a French bedroom farce about an ordinary chambermaid who suddenly develops authentic telepathic abilities, wreaking hilarious havoc on an aristocratic household. Directed by Albert Marre, this ill-fated production is a major collector's curiosity, famously marking the very first Broadway-bound ensemble casting of a young Tammy Grimes, showcasing the poster artwork of legendary graphic artist David Klein.
