42nd Street Moon presents a 20th Anniversary edition of one of its earliest hits – the hilarious farce SOMETHING FOR THE BOYS. In this rollicking musical with music and lyrics by Cole Porter, book by Dorothy Fields and Herbert Fields, three unlikely cousins, (including one who picks up radio waves with her teeth) inherit a San Antonio Ranch. Despite their lack of familiarity with each other, the cousins join together to transform the plantation into a boarding house for soldier’s wives. Romantic and military complications quickly arise. When it opened in 1943, The New York Times raved, “This is the musical comedy for which Broadway has been waiting a long, long time.” The top drawer Porter songs include The Leader of a Big-Time Band, Something for the Boys, Could It Be You?, Hey, Good Lookin', By the Mississinewah, and He's a Right Guy. SOMETHING FOR THE BOYS will be directed by Daniel Witzke, with music direction by Dave Dobrusky and choreography by Staci Arriaga.
