Anyone remember Lucky Guy? 2008

Lucky Guy was a play with Tom Hanks, but if you’re thinking of a show from 2008 and no recording was made, do you mean Cry-Baby…?

Nope this was an actual musical starring the late Leslie Jordan, Varla Jean Merman, Kyle Dean Massey and Jenn Colella. It opened and closed very quickly.

Ah thank you both for that clarification. It sounds like a bit of a Ring of Fire/Million Dollar Quartet vibe. I wish I’d seen it.

It’s certainly licensed but doesn’t have any upcoming productions listed, although those aren’t always accurate.

I remember having an absolute blast at this.

Kyle Dean Massey and Savannah Wise were the perfect matches for their material. Varla Jean and Leslie Jordan were as much fun together as Mary Testa and Jackie Hoffman in Xanadu. Looking back at the cast list, the ensemble was absolutely first-rate with people who were doing amazing work in those days.

The cast and the design showed where the show's true Broadway ambitions were. It didn't look like any expense was spared. Rob Bissinger's set captured the tone perfectly without resorting to feeling like a Rockwell knock off. I remember being impressed by Paul Miller's lighting for an off-Broadway show. And, of course, it was the kind of show that William Ivy Long was made for. (I wish I remembered the choreography better, but I don't think it's because I found it deficient in anyway.)

Count me in the small group of people who remember this show extremely favorably!

An unforgettable thrill ride. 😆 so ridiculous and so fun.
