musical revue with a book and lyrics by
Betty Comden and
Adolph Green and music by

The evening was comprised of material written by the duo for stage shows, films, and their former comedy troupe The Revuers.
Produced by the
Theatre Guild, the original
Broadway production opened on
December 23 1958 at the
John Golden Theatre, where it ran for 82 performances. It won the

After four previews, a revival opened on

Little Theatre to complete its 92-performance run. The duo then took the show on tour; a revival cast album recorded live at the Arena Theatre in
Washington, D.C. was released by DRG
