Based on Arnold Schulman’s play A Hole in the Head, Golden Rainbow
has a book by Ernest Kinoy and music and lyrics by Walter Marks and
follows a single dad trying to achieve success in Las Vegas while
raising his bright and savvy son. His late wife's sister arrives and
tries to bring stability to the boy's life, but unintentionally falls in
love with her brother-in-law.
The musical opened on Broadway February 4, 1968, and ran nearly a year starring married couple Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gormé.
The production also has lighting design by Garett Pembrook, projections and sound design by Peter Brucker, and casting by Michael Cassara. The team also includes production manager Aaron Simms, production coordinator Noah Glaister, production stage manager Hailey Delaney, assistant stage manager Carson Ferguson, and company manager Tori Calderon-Caswell.
The Musicals in Mufti series presents musical theatre gems in simply staged, book-in-hand concert formats. Mufti means “in street clothes, without the trappings of a full production.”
