Featured review
As a side note... (music from the show)
I haven't seen "The Most Happy Fella," but after listening to some of the music from the 1956 original show, performed very well, I'm eager for a revival of the play. You can catch several music clips in an episode of "I Love Lucy" from the sixth season.
In this episode, the Mertzs and the Ricardos try to see "The Most Happy Fella" in New York, but Lucy has forgotten that her tickets are for a matinée showing of the sold-out show instead of for the evening performance they arrive for. They sneak in and out of the theater throughout the episode, and viewers are treated to a lot of catchy, well-sung music from the musical in the background, such as "Standing on the corner, watching all the girls go by" and "Big D" (as in Dallas).
From what I can tell, the 1956 show and the 1980 show are essentially the same. Hopefully, we'll be able to see more soon. It seems like it'd be a great show.
