In this affectionate send-up of American musical theatre, one story becomes five delightful musicals, each written in the distinctive style of a different master of the art form. The result is an incredibly witty and stylish satire, spoofing musicals from Rodgers and Hammerstein to Stephen Sondheim, and including Kander and Ebb, Jerry Herman and Andrew Lloyd Webber along the way. The result is an incredibly entertaining and hilarious evening of fun. This magical, musical tour of American musical theatre is accompanied by non-stop laughter, with its humorous and dead-on spoofs of the best known musical theatre works of the last 50 years. This comic valentine to musical theatre was the longest running show in the York Theatre Company's 35-year history before moving to Off-Broadway.
