NICE WORK IF YOU CAN GET IT

APRIL 10 – 21, 2024

NOW EXTENDED THROUGH APRIL 28!

Music and Lyrics by George and Ira Gershwin
Book by Joe DiPietro
Inspired by Material by Guy Bolton and P.G. Wodehouse

Directed and Choreographed by David Eggers
Music Direction by Brent Alan Huffman

There’s a “Somebody I’m Longing to See” and they’re “S’wonderful” with a “Fascinating Rhythm”. Before you, “Call The Whole Thing Off”, get the “Sweet and Lowdown” of this “Lady Be Good” musical that will hit the CVRep stage with Gershwin songs you’ll be humming the whole way home. In a brand-new take on the classic 1920s musical farce, this screwball comedy features romance, high-spirited production numbers, and a Tony Award winning script that pokes fun at class snobbery in the prohibition era.

This production is made possible through the generous support of our Production Sponsors: The FitzDell Fund at Inland Empire Community Foundation, Where Giving Grows.
