Crazy For You tells the story of young New York banker Bobby Child, who is sent to Deadrock, Nevada, to foreclose on a rundown theatre.

But Polly takes an instant dislike to the city slicker, so Bobby vows – through cunning, razzmatazz, and a hilarious case of mistaken identity – to win Polly’s heart and save the theatre. Memorable Gershwin tunes from the score include “I Got Rhythm,” “Naughty Baby,” “They Can't Take That Away from Me,” “Embraceable You,” “But Not for Me,” “Nice Work If You Can Get It” and “Someone to Watch Over Me.” Awards, Accolades, Adaptations: Winner - Three 1992 Tony Awards, including Best Musical; Winner - Two 1992 Drama Desk Awards, including Outstanding Musical; Winner - Three 1992 Outer Critics Circle Awards, including Outstanding Broadway Musical Rate: All roles are paid positions.
