Broadway Bound!
I was hoping to see Finian’s Rainbow on Broadway this year and was disappointed to find out that the play is closing on Sunday! I quickly hopped on the internet and was able to obtain two tickets for Saturday evening for myself and my ten year old daughter. I think she will thoroughly enjoy it!
If you haven’t heard of Finian’s Rainbow, the play is about an Irish man who steals a pot of gold from a leprechaun. Finian, hopes to cash in on all the gold coins, but the leprechaun is fast on his trail. The story involves a fictional state called Missitucky and there are lessons learned about love and racism. The music is wonderful!
If you think you might be interested, rent the movie starring Fred Astaire as Finian. You won’t be disappointed. Here is a peek of one of the scenes from the Broadway musical:
