Minsky's (2009)

Some musicals have all the luck...and them some do not. Minsky's is one that does not. It would take thirty plus years for this cult classic to make its way from the big screen to the big stage and in between it would have three different lyricists, two different directors, two choreographers, but it would always have the same composer: Charles Strouse.

It would take thirty plus years for this cult classic to make its way from the big screen to the big stage and in between it would have three different lyricists, two different directors, two choreographers, but it would always have the same composer: Charles Strouse. Why was he so determined to get this movie to Broadway?

Well, what happened was....We are going to let two time Tony Award winning director Casey Nicholaw give you an insider's look at what should've been the next Drowsy Chaperone: Minsky's!
