Around this production

The recipient of six Tony nominations, Goodtime Charley lost $1.1 million, well over its original investment, thanks to consistent operating losses.

That song is the first thing I ever heard Lonny Price sing. I thought that was weirdly karmic. After we were all cast in Merrily We Roll Along, we had these gatherings before we started rehearsals. Lonny sat at the piano in his room and Steve Sondheim was there, and at the piano he sang “Goodtime Charley.”
