Broadway Shows Spotlight New York City Troubles
UPI drama column reviews Inner City at Ethel Barrymore Theater with nine strong singers led by Linda Hopkins and Carl Hall. Tom O’Horgan directs a campy, extravagant production rooted in social critique, while Eve Merriam’s satirical lyrics and Helen Miller’s music carry the show. Tennessee Williams is slated for Confessional off Broadway with Helena Carroll in the lead, and Mr. Smith Goes to Washington is eyed for a Broadway musical treatment by Norman Rosemont with David Shaw adapting and Norman Gimbel writing lyrics.
