Who wrote the music for the musical, a revival of which gave Max Meth his second Tony Awards ?
Pal Joey (musical) Pal Joey is a musical with a book by John O'Hara and music and lyrics by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart. The musical is based on a character and situations O'Hara created in a series of short stories published in "The New Yorker", which he later published in novel form. The title character, Joey Evans, is a manipulative small-time nightclub performer whose ambitions lead him into an affair with the wealthy, middle-aged and married Vera Simpson. It includes two songs that have become standards: "I Could Write a Book" and "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered".
Billion Dollar Baby Billion Dollar Baby is a musical set on Staten Island and in Atlantic City during the late 1920s. It follows the adventures of an ambitious young woman, Maribelle Jones, in her quest for wealth during the Prohibition era. Betty Comden and Adolph Green, fresh from their success with "On the Town", wrote the book and lyrics; Morton Gould provided the score. Indeed, the production team was something of an "On the Town" reunion: once again, George Abbott directed and Jerome Robbins choreographed.
