"Based on the characters created by Al Capp" Original Musical Comedy by Norman
Panama and Melvin Frank
Directed by Robert Weinstein
Music Director Justin Ryan
Legendary
cartoonist, Al Capp’s world famous characters come to life in this Broadway
musical full of hillbilly nonsense and sharp political criticism which might
come straight from today’s headlines.
The
motley and lovable characters of Dogpatch, USA, including Ma and Pa Yokum, Li’l
Abner with his bombshell girlfriend Daisy Mae, Marryin’ Sam and the homely
Scragg family, are enjoying a lazy day at the fishin’ hole when a town meeting
is called by Senator Jack S. Phogbound. The Senator announces that Dogpatch has
been declare the most unnecessary place in the whole country, making it the
perfect town for testing an atomic bomb. Dogpatch is to be evacuated.
This
touches off a chain of events in an attempt to save the beloved town and the
next Sadie Hawkins Dance race when the females chase the men in order to catch
them in the net of matrimony. The race where Daisy Mae hopes to finally catch
her Li’l Abner. The search for the thing that will make the town “necessary”
takes the story from the discovery of Yokumberry tonic to the bureaucracy of
Washington, DC, with its politicians and scientists then back to Dogpatch where
the answer to the problems has been all along.
The songs
from the show include the gentle duet, “Namely You,” the hilarious showstopper
“Jubilation T. Cornpone, General Bullmoose’s “Progress is the Root of All Evil”
and the political satire, “The Country’s in the Very Best of Hands.” |
