Around this production

Director George Abbott was 89 years old when he staged this show, one of his final Broadway productions. Richard Adler, who had triumphed with The Pajama Game and Damn Yankees in the 1950s, never had another Broadway hit.

The show’s opening was dazzling. The entire cast marched across the stage in a colorful, Elizabethan parade, holding up banners that identified the artistic team. It was like the opening credits of some playful movie. The Abbott Touch Thomas Hischak 2023 Bloomsbury Publishing, p. 254
