Awards & Recognition
Nominee: 1993 Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding Off-Broadway Musical Nominee: Four 1993 Drama Desk Awards
Hilarious song parodies are woven into a merry musical about the life of Barry Bockman and his beloved, Sarah Jackman.
From birth to summer at Camp Granada to marriage to suburbia and the shopping mall to retirement in Florida, the audience is treated to a zany cast of characters inspired by the Grammy Award-winning song "Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh!" and Allan Sherman's eight bestselling record albums.
"Parodies brilliantly built into a show... One of the Year's Ten Best."
— New York Post
"A party, nutty as a Viennese table and splashy as a fruit punch fountain.... Daffy and divine!"
— Newsday
"Breathlessly paced ... live wire comic exuberance that crackles across the stage."
— The New York Times
