Alley Theatre Presents the World Premiere of A New Musical Comedy, The Gershwins’ An American in Paris
The wild and hilarious new musical comedy The Gershwins’ An American in Paris tells the story of Michel Gerard, the greatest music hall singer in Paris. When Michel fails to turn up at Monumental Pictures’ Paris studio for the filming of a new musical, Studio Head Louis Goldman sends his practical, no-nonsense secretary, Rebecca Klemm, to find the missing star – and when the legendary Parisian crosses swords with the indomitable American, nothing short of fireworks ensue.
The Gershwins' An American in Paris runs on the Hubbard Stage April 29 through June 1.
