The Will Rogers Follies August 21 – August 31, 2014
Book by Peter Stone; Music Composed and Arranged by Cy Coleman; Lyrics by Betty Comden and Adolph Green Original New York Production Directed and Choreographed by Tommy Tune;
Inspired by the words of Will and Betty Rogers
Will Rogers was a unique American who, though he died almost sixty years ago, remains a beloved figure remembered for his humor, his wisdom, and his just plain common sense. At the heart of his populist philosophy was his most famous statement: “I never met a man I didn’t like.” Rogers became the biggest, most popular, and highest paid star of every existing medium of his time–stage, screen, radio, newspapers, and public appearances. In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that he was the greatest star this country has ever produced. Matthew Wilson, Director; Michael Kennedy, Music Director; Kate Glasheen, Choreographer; Jenny Lutes, Production Stage Manager
