Trivia & History

Many problems befell the production, which took two years from planning to opening. There were money problems (bad enough that the show almost folded out of town). A fire burned some of the scenery. Casting problems caused delays. Noble Sissle (one of the stars) was injured in rehearsal and was out until opening night. The problems mirrored the original 1921 production of Shuffle Along.
