How did we get here from there?
1976, 1975, 1974… 1957!
On a roof top in West Side Manhattan, three friends watch as Sputnik flashes across the sky heralding the dawn of a new era. With all the idealism and exuberance of youth, they look forward to a promising future. Frank, Mary, and Charley do grow up to realize their goals, but may have paid a greater price than they anticipated. Beginning in the mid-70’s and traveling backwards to the time of the space race, Merrily We Roll Along takes us on a tuneful trip through the rivalries, jealousies, triumphs and failures of these three musical colleagues to uncover how they got here from there. Featuring such classics as “Not A Day Goes By,” “Old Friends,” “Good Thing Going” and, of course, “Merrily We Roll Along,” this musical fable takes a behind-the-scenes look at the Broadway dream.
