“It’s about a young man who wants to be a Broadway star, but his parents want him to be a banker,” theater arts teacher and director David Yirak said. “They send him out to a place called Deadrock, Nevada to foreclose on a property, which happens to be a theater, and of course he falls in love with the owner’s daughter and complications ensue, but true love wins out in the end.”

“It’s an upbeat, very funny script.

— Dave Yirak

Major roles include Broadway hopeful Bobby Child, spunky “All-American Girl” Polly Baker and New York theatrical producer Bela Zangler.

“It’s an upbeat, very funny script,” Yirak said. “The music is wonderful. It’s got a lot of humor in it and the music is by Gershwin. It’s very pretty and fun.”
