Throw in Fred’s current love interest Lois Lane, her gambler boyfriend Bill, and a couple of gangsters who somehow get caught up in the show, and the stage is set for a funny and farcical battle of the sexes! A delightful tribute to the glittering wit of Shakespeare, and an irresistible celebration of the pleasure and folly of working in theatre, Cole Porter’s witty, jazz-inflected score features hit after hit, with show-stopping numbers including ‘Another Op’nin’ Another Show’, ‘Brush Up Your Shakespeare’, ‘Always True To You In My Fashion’ and ‘Too Darn Hot.’ |
