DECEMBER 1 - 19, 2010
HEY, KIDS,<br />
LET’S PUT ON A SHOW!<br />
Rodgers & Hart’s Babes in Arms is the<br />
quintessential “show in a barn” musical. It has<br />
one of the greatest scores ever written for the<br />
Broadway stage: “My Funny Valentine,” “The<br />
Lady is a Tramp,” “Where or When,” “Johnny<br />
One-Note,” “I Wish I Were in Love Again,”<br />
“Babes in Arms” — these are a cherished part of the American songbook and the<br />
Broadway musical canon.<br />
So what is “uncommon” about such a hit? Just this: Few people have seen the real<br />
Babes in Arms in the last fifty-plus years.<br />
In 1939, Hollywood took the title (and, shockingly, only “Where or When” and the<br />
title tune), added Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland, and released a popular film that<br />
only suggested the stage play. In the 1950s, Rodgers hired George Oppenheimer to<br />
create an entirely new script. Oppenheimer kept only the leading man’s name from<br />
Rodgers and Hart’s original musical comedy.<br />
When New York’s Encores! series presented the show in 1999, they returned to the<br />
original (as edited by John Guare) — and Babes in Arms was revealed to be more than<br />
just fluffy fun. In fact, Rodgers and Hart wrote a musical with a social conscience.<br />
The kids of Seaport aren’t just fighting to put on their show; they’re fighting against<br />
nasty racial prejudice directed at one of their gang. Leading man Val is unequivocal<br />
in his condemnation of bigotry — doubtless a radical notion for many in the 1937<br />
audience.<br />
This is why the Babes in Arms was changed for the movie, and why it was rewritten.<br />
But once again, we’re bringing the original “babes in armor” back to San Francisco. We<br />
think you’ll agree the songs and the story are just as engaging as they were in 1937.<br />
— GREG MACKELLAN<br />
ABOUT THE CREATORS<br />
RICHARD RODGERS (1902-1979) and LORENZ HART (1895-1943) wrote their first<br />
shows together when both were still students attending Columbia University. Their<br />
breakthrough came with the score for a 1925 charity show, The Garrick Gaieties,<br />
which introduced the classic valentine to their hometown, “Manhattan.” Over the<br />
next five years they wrote fifteen musical comedies for Broadway and London’s West<br />
End before relocating to Hollywood in 1930, where they wrote the scores for several<br />
movie musicals, most notably Love Me Tonight starring Maurice Chevalier.<br />
In 1935 they returned to New York to write the score for Billy Rose’s circus musical<br />
Jumbo, launching a golden era that included On Your Toes, Babes In Arms, I’d Rather<br />
Be Right, I Married An Angel, The Boys From Syracuse, Too Many Girls, Higher And<br />
Higher, Pal Joey, and By Jupiter. In 1943 the partnership disbanded temporarily when<br />
Rodgers collaborated with Oscar Hammerstein II on Oklahoma!, but it resumed with a<br />
revision of their 1927 hit A Connecticut Yankee, which opened on November 17, 1943<br />
— less than a week before Lorenz Hart’s death.<br />
For the next two decades Richard Rodgers collaborated<br />
exclusively with Oscar Hammerstein II on such musicals<br />
as Carousel, South Pacific, The King And I, Flower Drum<br />
Song, and The Sound of Music. After Hammerstein’s<br />
death in 1960, Rodgers continued to write for the<br />
musical stage including No Strings and Do I Hear A<br />
Waltz?. In 1990, Richard Rodgers was posthumously<br />
honored when Broadway’s 46th <strong>Street</strong> Theatre was<br />
renamed for him. In 1999, Rodgers and Hart each were<br />
commemorated on United States postage stamps.

STRIKE UP THE BAND (1930)<br />
— Our Ira Gershwin Celebration Continues! —<br />
Music by George Gershwin<br />
Lyrics by Ira Gershwin<br />
Book by George S. Kaufman<br />
Directed by Zack Thomas Wilde<br />
Skulking villains! Unrequited love! A merrily<br />
madcap treatise on the follies of love, war and business!<br />
Our Ira Gershwin celebration continues with this smash hit from 1930.<br />
Complete with logical insanity worthy of the Marx Brothers (for whom<br />
Kaufman wrote Broadway libretti as well as movie scripts), Strike Up<br />
The Band is a tongue-in-cheek tale of an American businessman who<br />
leads the US into war with Switzerland over... cheese.<br />
Receiving rave reviews when revived by New York’s Encores! series in<br />
1998 — the N.Y. Times declared it “a show that remains remarkably<br />
vital, with a score as sweet and varied as a chocolate sampler. It reminds<br />
us that Broadway musicals once had sass, wit, and sex appeal.”<br />

has directed more than 50 musicals, including Li’l Abner, Minnie’s Boys, Paint Your Wagon,<br />

acclaimed six-CD “Shadowland” series of recordings devoted to lesser-known songs by classic<br />
American musical theatre songwriters with performers including Judy Kaye, Jason Graae,<br />
Susan Watson, Patricia Morison and lyricist Sheldon Harnick. Greg also provided the revised<br />
script for <strong>42nd</strong> <strong>Street</strong> <strong>Moon</strong>’s 2004 NEA-sponsored restoration of the Harburg/Arlen Hooray<br />
for What! Also in 2004, Greg’s award-winning revision of the Cole Porter musical Out of<br />
This World was presented to critical acclaim at the Chichester Festival in England, and has<br />
since been produced in Seattle, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. He yearly directs the <strong>Moon</strong><br />
fundraising gala, including I Remember It Well with Leslie Caron and All the Things You Are<br />
with Rebecca Luker, with whom he reunited for the recent Jerome Kern Salon.<br />
STEPHANIE RHOADS (Artistic Director) says that “founding <strong>42nd</strong> St. <strong>Moon</strong> in 1993 with Greg<br />
has resulted in the realization of a dream. Giving new life to forgotten and under-presented<br />
works of musical theatre has provided a source of joy and pride.” As an actor, she recently<br />
graced our stage as Madame la Comtesse Diane de Vobrillac in Ben Franklin in Paris. Included<br />
among her favorite <strong>Moon</strong> roles: Helen Vance in our smash production of Out of This World,<br />
Adriana in Boys From Syracuse, Ninotchka in Silk Stockings, Venus in One Touch of..., Elvira<br />
in High Spirits, Thea in Fiorello!, and Adeline in Sweet Adeline. She will appear in April,<br />
2011’s Strike Up the Band and the John Kander Salon. Stephanie has received Dean Goodman<br />
Choice Awards for Hello Dolly!, Out of This World, and One Touch of Venus as well as Bay<br />

42ND STREET MOON<br />
During the 1920s and early 1930s, the bright lights of<br />
Broadway were known as “The <strong>42nd</strong> <strong>Street</strong> <strong>Moon</strong>,”<br />
honoring the theatre’s most exciting thoroughfare.<br />
San Francisco’s <strong>42nd</strong> <strong>Street</strong> <strong>Moon</strong>—named after the<br />
popular Broadway sobriquet—is now in its eighteenth<br />
season. To date we have presented 107 rarely performed<br />
musicals and revues celebrating the dazzling legacy of<br />
the 20th Century’s greatest musical theatre composers<br />
and lyricists.<br />
<strong>42nd</strong> <strong>Street</strong> <strong>Moon</strong> makes great musicals sing again by finding (and often painstakingly<br />
restoring) “lost” classics. Our productions are fully acted, sung, and performed in an<br />
intimate production format with wonderful choreography, minimal costumes and<br />
set decoration, and accompaniment only by piano or small ensemble. In this way<br />
the story, characterization, dance, and music can be enjoyed in its purest form at<br />
affordable ticket prices for our audiences.<br />
