A local theatre company here in Los Angeles is doing a production of the show. I will mostly likely see, they have a history of putting on great productions of forgotten musicals.

What is the story with THE GRAND TOUR... is seems so atypical for Jerry Herman. No tour-de-force female roles, no bugles or buglebeads. What compelled him to take on this subject? Anyone know?

I have heard the song MARIANNE, lovely Jerry Herman.
