Tickets, Please! (1950 revue) repro
Choose options
Joan Axelrod, Max Showalter, and multi-panel lyricists' 'Tickets, Please!' exploded onto the Broadway stage at the Coronet Theatre in 1950, running for an astonishing 245 performances to conquer the post-war commercial scene under the banner of producer flags. Completely discarding traditional linear book structures, the high-stepping contemporary musical comedy variety revue features a rapid-fire parade of sophisticated sketches, media satires, and hot swing arrangements engineered explicitly to highlight the comedic metrics of the Paul and Grace Hartman duo.
