The wild and hilarious new musical comedy The Gershwins' An American in Paris takes us on a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the legendary movie-musical.
Reuniting Ken Ludwig, George Gershwin and Ira Gershwin - the team behind the Broadway smash Crazy For You - this new American musical tells the story of Michel Gerard, the greatest music hall singer in Paris. When Michel fails to turn up at Monumental Pictures' Paris studio for the filming of a new musical, Studio Head Louis Goldman sends his practical, no-nonsense secretary, Rebecca Klemm, to find the missing star - and when the legendary Parisian crosses swords with the indomitable American, nothing short of fireworks ensue. Don't miss this blissful prequel to the famous movie, featuring some of the best-loved songs written by George and Ira Gershwin including: "S' Wonderful," "They All Laughed," "Stairway to Paradise" and many more. The Gershwins' An American in Paris runs on the Hubbard Stage through June 22.
