Let 'Em Eat Cake
George S Kaufman
Let 'Em Eat Cake, In Concert
by George S Kaufman, George Gershwin, Morrie Ryskind, Ira Gershwin
Synopsis
A concert adaptation of the classic Broadway musical!
A biting sequel to the Pulitzer prize-winning Of Thee I Sing , Let ’Em Eat Cake is a darker, more complex look at politics and American culture in the early 1930s.
In this tuneful but edgy satire, President Wintergreen is defeated for reelection, and he and his former Vice President, Alexander Throttlebottom, form an incipient Fascist movement to take over the government.
The rousing score from George and Ira Gershwin includes the hit song “Mine.”
