Janet James Star Amid Blue Laws Revival On Broadway
Janet James, an 18 year old mountain girl with a soaring voice, debuts as star in Goldstein’s new Blue Laws of 1928 revival at Madison Square Garden. Ballard, Janet’s suitor, wrestles with pride and risk as publicity swirls and Janet’s fame climbs, while rival Deslys and a theater crowd shape the drama. Janet’s father also rises to prominence in town headlines. Greenroom tension and fanfare mark the curtain call, with the show drawing a sold out audience and walkouts on opening night. Ballard struggles to balance loyalty and fear for Janet’s future as he grapples with his own role in her ascent. The tale moves toward a dramatic continuation as the stage saga unfolds.
