The Girl From Nantucket (1945, New Haven tryout) - repro
Choose options
Jacques Belasco and uncredited book writers' highly anticipated musical comedy 'The Girl From Nantucket' launched its historic pre-Broadway out-of-town world premiere tryout engagement at New Haven's historic Shubert Theatre in early 1945 before transferring to the Alvin Theatre. Conceived as a high-stepping, melody-infused maritime musical comedy farce pastiche, the fast-paced plot centers on an eccentric city house painter who is mistakenly hijacked into a whaling museum network, launching farcical deceptions.
