Composer Cy Coleman gave Broadway some of its most iconic melodies:

Big Spender, Real Live Girl, Hey, Look Me Over, and the list goes on and on. He

was the King of 60s smooth swing and had never once closed a show out of town….until….

Along with a wild crew including a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist,

a testy choreographer, a director unsure of the material, and a leading man who

was as eccentric offstage as he was on, Cy Coleman tried to bring a bucolic

morality musical to life but Home Again, Home Again shuttered in Canada.

But soon Coleman had an idea for his next musical! A musical

about a musical whose wild crew included a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist, a

testy choreographer, a director unsure of the material, and a leading man who

was as eccentric offstage as he was on, as they all careened to opening on the

great bright way.

See what happened was…well, you will just need to jump into

our episode focusing on Baker’s Dozen/Home Again/Home Again Home Again/10 Days

to Broadway/13 Days to Broadway…..yes….there are more titles.
