Around this production

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is a stage musical with music and lyrics written by Richard M. and Robert B. Sherman and a book by Jeremy Sams. It is based on the 1968 film of the same name with screenplay by Roald Dahl, Ken Hughes, and Richard Maibaum. The 1968 film was based in turn on the book of the same name by Ian Fleming. The musical's world premiere was staged at the London Palladium on April 16, 2002, directed by Adrian Noble before the show opened on Broadway in 2005.

One night, the title character of the show, a flying car, stalled in the flying position. No matter what the stagehands tried, the car would not move and the show had to stop. Show and Tell the New Book of Broadway Anecdotes Ken Bloom Bloom Ken Oxford Univ, p. 307
