CMP presents the Gershwin classic Crazy For You. With all the songs you know and love including I Got Rhythm, Can’t Take That Away From Me and Slap That Bass, this is a show full of glitz, comedy, cowboys and showgirls sure to leave you asking “who could ask for anything more?”
Crazy For You follows young New York banker Bobby Child, who is sent to Deadrock, Nevada, to foreclose on a rundown theatre. In Deadrock, Bobby falls for Polly Baker, the theatre owner’s daughter. But Polly takes an instant dislike to the city slicker, so Bobby vows – through cunning, razzmatazz, and a hilarious case of mistaken identity – to win Polly’s heart and save the theatre. Memorable Gershwin tunes include “I Got Rhythm,” “Naughty Baby,” “They Can’t Take That Away from Me,” “Embraceable You,” “But Not for Me,” “Nice Work If You Can Get It” and “Someone to Watch Over Me.”
