To those who listened and watched on Broadway, to dance bands, to singers in concert, on the radio, and on film, Irving Berlin, at one point in our history, was popular music. He wrote them all and we listened. The Irving Berlin Story is the first and only full-scale musical biography of Irving Berlin. In his lifetime, Berlin blocked every effort by others to dramatize his life, saying he insisted on maintaining his privacy; he said people could dramatize his life after he died. And now ASCAP award-winner Chip Deffaa has done just that. The Irving Berlin Story is a big, bold two-act musical comedy, with some 50-odd (and we mean ODD) characters. This is a perfect musical for any theater with the space, personnel, and budget to mount a really big musical that is chock-filled with great songs! Berlin&#8217;s story is a quintessential American success story. An immigrant raised in utter poverty, with little formal education, Berlin rose to be the most popular individual songwriter in the world. He could neither read nor write music. A musical secretary had to transcribe numbers he played, hummed, or sang. But the songs he created have delighted listeners for over a century.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>PLAY DETAILS:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>(23M 22W 5TeenBoys 2TeenGirls 2B 1G + CHORUS) The over 50 roles, big and small, can be doubled by 20 performers.<\/li>\n<li>Settings can be simple or elaborate<\/li>\n<li>About 2 hours<\/li>\n<li><strong>Order # 3060<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Available to order NOW!<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>PERUSAL MATERIALS<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>The PDF <strong>PERUSAL<\/strong> <strong>PAGES<\/strong> file is available for download.
