"Stagestruck banker Bobby Child, caught between his termagant mama and impatient fiancee, is despatched to the Nevada desert to foreclose on an ailing theatre; instead, he falls in love with the owner's spunky daughter Polly and hatches a plan to impersonate a successful Broadway impresario, Zangler, borrow his bevy of leggy chorines, and save the theatre by putting on a show right there. All sorts of silly shenanigans naturally ensue, including some nifty comic confusions when the real Zangler shows up."

Crazy for You won the 1992 Tony Award for Best Musical, 1993 Olivier Award for Best New Musical and 2012 Olivier Award for Best Musical Revival.
