This show was created by using some of “Girl Crazy” (1930) and adding a dozen more Gershwin songs from other sources to create a “new” Gershwin musical. It opened on Broadway in February 1992 and ran for 1,622 performances, winning Tonys for Best Musical, Best Choreography, and Best Costumes. The London production ran for nearly three years winning Olivier Awards for Best Musical and for Susan Stroman’s quite exceptional and innovative choreography.
