Strike Up The Band
George S Kaufman
Strike Up The Band, In Concert
by George S Kaufman, George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin
Synopsis
A concert adaptation of the hit Broadway musical!
In this zany political and social satire, an American tariff against Swiss cheese elicits such an angry response from Switzerland that Horace J. Fletcher, owner of the American Cheese Co., pushes the U.S. to declare war.
Despite the brewing political turmoil, several romances bloom at Fletcher’s company, including the innocent courtship of youngsters Timothy and Anne, a passionate romance between pacifist Jim and Fletcher’s daughter, Joan, and the aggressive pursuit of Fletcher himself by Anne’s strong-willed mother, Mrs. Draper.
