“Crazy For You” will open at Music Mountain Theatre Friday, July 29 and run through Aug. 21.
Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m., Saturdays and Sundays at 3 p.m.
Winner of the 1992 Tony Award for Best Musical, the comedic musical romp is scripted by Ken Ludwig and features the memorable hits of George and Ira Gershwin such as “I Got Rhythm,” “Naughty Baby,” “They Can’t Take That Away from Me,” “Embraceable You,” “But Not for Me,” “Nice Work if You Can Get It” and “Someone to Watch Over Me.”
A zany rich-boy-meets-hometown-girl romantic comedy, “Crazy For You” tells the story of young New York banker Bobby Child, who is sent to Deadrock, Nev., to foreclose on a rundown theater.
In Deadrock, Bobby falls for spunky Polly Baker, the theater owner’s daughter. But Polly takes an instant dislike to the city slicker, so Bobby vows – through cunning, razzmatazz, and a hilarious case of mistaken identity – to win Polly’s heart and save the theater.
The cast includes Louis Palena as Bobby, Jen Gursky as Polly, with Libby Kane, Mike Prikril, Joan Hoffman, Jonathan Wierzbicki, Bob Abrahamson, Justin Derry, Alison McMullen, Jaimie Geddes, Erin Wurtz and a full cast of 32 performers singing, dancing and bringing the Gershwin musical to life.
Tickets are available at musicmountaintheatre.org or 609-397-3337.
Music Mountain Theatre is located at 1483 Route 179 in Lambertville, N.J.
