Give My Regards To Broadway

Give My Regards To Broadway
Give My Regards To Broadway

Combine the greatest show tunes of George M. Cohan with a sparkling story and you have the most entertaining, charming, toe-tapping musical of the season. Dick Foster is opening a Broadway show but is having problems with both money and his leading lady. Enter Mary Collins, an aspiring actress from New Rochelle, plus "Legs" Ruby, a Damon Runyon-type bookie who is on the run from the mob. Just as all appears lost, a financial "angel" appears with the money to do the show, and Mary gets her big chance at stardom. The play is filled with fascinating character roles, including the "Donald O'Connor-type" pianist, Betty, the Virginia belle in the chorus, along with a bevy of chorus girls, gangsters and other assorted characters. The set, (mostly on an empty stage) is a snap. The Cohan songs are among his most memorable: "Give My Regards To Broadway," "You're A Grand Old Flag," "Mary's A Grand Old Name" and many more. And the cast is completely flexible with room for an additional chorus of any size, plus optional choreography if desired. Here's a show in the true tradition of "42nd Street" and the great Broadway musicals—an audience pleaser for sure.

Gone With The Breeze

Gone With The Breeze
Gone With The Breeze

The whole country is talking non-stop about Lucy Belle Bankhead's sensational new novel, "Gone With The Breeze." The heroine is spunky 18-year-old Jezebel O'Toole. She makes Scarlett O'Hara seem like soggy grits-and-a-half. When the nation hears that Hollywood's Lone Pine Films, the movie maker that emphasizes youth, is planning "Breeze" as its next picture, hundreds of aspiring young actresses descend on the studio. (Its last film was a bike flick, "Gasoline Opera," starring the brash young Monty Missouri.) Of course, the studio already knows they'll cast Peggy Tempest for Jezebel's part. She's the most powerful star in town and will guarantee a hit, but she's also the most temperamental one. To keep her in line, producers Ruth Wintersole and Huckleberry Jones pretend they want an "unknown" for the part. The scheme appears to work. The "unknown" selected, Vicki Rawlins, is ideal. The press builds her up big. Then it's discovered Ruth and Huckleberry don't have the film rights to the novel, and Peggy starts suing everyone in sight. How the problem is resolved will have your audience doubled over in laughter. Fun roles include wild tour guides, frantic studio personnel, would-be actors, agents, columnists and an army of loony lawyers on the march. Very simple to produce and the songs are "sock-o": "Ya Gotta Hand It To Youth," "Fax Me A Kiss," "Give A Lawyer A Hug," and, of course, "Gone with the Breeze." With great songs, characters and crazy business, this riotously funny musical comedy will be the smash of any theatre season!
