Synopsis

Based on Stephen Longstreet’s 1946 novel The Sisters Liked Them Handsome , High Button Shoes is a wacky tribute to Mack Sennett’s brand of screwball comedy.

The score, which hilariously incorporates themes by Franz Liszt and Jacques Offenbach, features a string of delightful Jule Styne/Sammy Cahn numbers, including “Papa, Won’t You Dance With Me?,” “I Still Get Jealous,” and “On A Sunday By The Sea” (a.k.a. “The Bathing Beauty Ballet”).
