City of Angels

MULTI TONY AWARD-WINNING MUSICAL SET IN GLAMOROUS, SEDUCTIVE 1940'S HOLLYWOOD MUSICAL HOMAGE TO 40’s CLASSIC FILM The creative team from the triumphant production of FOLLIES returns, mounting a multi Tony award–winning musical about a disillusioned writer and his screenplay. Set in glamorous, seductive 1940’s Hollywood. City of Angels tells the story about a disillusioned writer and his screenplay. Is it the movie detective who is forever haunted by the one who got away – or is it his author? A swinging jazz score brings this clash of silver screen fantasy and Hollywood reality to vivid life. City of Angels chronicles the misadventures of Stine, a young novelist, attempting a screenplay for movie producer/director, Buddy Fidler. Playwright: Larry Gelbart Lyricist: David Zippel Composer: Cy Coleman “There are plenty of musicals with clever lyrics… some offer clever books… a handful even manage clever melodies… but City of Angels is the rarity that has all three.” – The New York Times –
