2005 - Damn Yankees
A Little History...
Damn Yankees became a cause celebre when it opened on
Broadway in
1955 . The
show, based on the Faustian legend of a
man who sells his soul for what he thinks will make him happy,
is replete with appealing tunes, unabashed energy, and timely
themes.
The writers, Richard Adler and Jerry Ross (also known
for another Broadway success, The Pajama Game), adapted
their story from the novel The Year the Yankees Lost the
Pennant by Douglass Wallop. The show played for over 1000
performances on Broadway and earned several honors,
including one for Gwen Verdon (who played Lola) and another
for Ray Walstron (who starred as Applegate).
Now, five decades later, Damn Yankees occupies a paramount
place in the history of the American musical genre. It remains the
only musical to celebrate baseball, one of our favorite pastimes,
while teaching us valuable lessons about communication, love, and
enthusiasm for whatever we do.
A Codicil:
In no way is our production an attempt to debase athletes.
Conversely, our musical is a tribute to athleticism, and to anyone,
for that matter, who has passion for a noble cause in the “game of
life." After all, "you gotta have heart."
Allusions in Damn Yankees
(to help you understand historical references)
Mel Allen: a popular sports broadcaster for both the
Yankees and the Giants
Chevy Chase: a suburb
Ford Frick: a sportswriter, executive and president of the
National Baseball League
Texas Leaguers: a batted ball hit into the air that falls
safely between approaching infielders and outfielders
Alibi Ike: a baseball player who would make
excuses for errors because he was worried about
imperfection
