  2. Who? • Rodgers & Hart were an American songwriting • partnership between composer Richard Rodgers • and the lyricist Lorenz Hart. • They worked together on 28 stage musicals • and more than 500 songs from 1919 until 1943. • Their songs have long been favorites of cabaret singers and jazz artists like Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Elvis Presley, Johnny Mathis, Judy Garland and countless others.

  3. What? • From their first hit song in 1925 through their final show-stopper in 1943, the prolific team of Rodgers & Hart was continually redefining the musical theatre with its wit, freshness and intelligence. In this rousing pastiche, the first act sets the stage for romance while the second act is comprised of their more satiric gems. • The brief narration highlights the Rodgers & Hart story, but it's the songs that explain their success. Perhaps master tunesmith Irving Berlin summed it up best: 'Tuneful and tasty, schmaltzy and smart-music by Rodgers, lyrics by Hart.'
