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.
