The Classic New Gershwin Musical!
Massey Theatre
April 27 to May 14, 2023
A classic romantic comedy about a boy, a girl, and a theatre in need of salvation, Crazy for You is full of humour, larger-than-life characters and some of the greatest show tunes of all-time.
This “riotously entertaining” musical stars the real life husband and wife team of Todd Talbot (Host of HGTV's Love it or List It Vancouver) as Bobby Child and Rabecca Talbot (Les Miserables, Seussical: the Musical) as Polly Baker.
The zany, light hearted script is complemented with sensational tap dancing and a collection of beloved Gershwin tunes including Someone To Watch Over Me, Shall We Dance, I Can’t Be Bothered Now, and the high-energy dance number, I Got Rhythm.
With RCMT's full orchestra fronting a cast of almost 30 talented local performers, this highly acclaimed big Broadway musical will have you tapping your toes and leaving the theatre full of joy!
