''Mr. Wonderful'' is a musical with a book by Joseph Stein and Will Glickman, and music and lyrics by Jerry Bock, Larry Holofcener, and George David Weiss. Written specifically to showcase the talents of Sammy Davis, Jr., the thin plot, focusing on entertainer Charlie Welch's show business struggles, primarily served as a springboard for an extended version of Davis's Las Vegas nightclub act. The Broadway production, staged by Jack Donohue, opened on March 22, 1956 at The Broadway Theatre, where it ran for 383 performances. In addition to Davis, the cast included his father Sammy Sr. and uncle Will (who together with Davis had performed as the Will Mastin Trio), Jack Carter, Chita Rivera, Malcolm Lee Beggs, and Marilyn Cooper. ==Song list== ;Act I *''1617 Broadway'' - Rita Romano, Hal and Ensemble *''Without You, I'm Nothing'' - Fred Campbell and Lil Campbell *''Jaques D'Iraq'' - Charlie Welch, Uncle, Dad and Ensemble *''Ethel, Baby'' - Ethel Pearson and Charlie Welch *''Mr. Wonderful'' - Ethel Pearson *''Charlie Welch'' - Fred Campbell *''Big Time (Added after opening)'' - Charlie Welch *''Charlie Welch'' (Reprise) - Fred Campbell and Ensemble *''Talk to Him'' - Lil Campbell and Ethel Pearson *''Too Close for Comfort (1956 song)'' - Charlie Welch *''Without You, I'm Nothing'' (Reprise) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mr. Wonderful (musical)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
