Running 315 performances in 1947, ALLEGRO signaled the start of a powerful new genre: the concept musical. Telling the still timely story of a doctor at conflict with his family and community, ALLEGRO is the first of only two Rodgers & Hammerstein musicals not adapted from another source. With songs like "The Gentleman is a Dope." "A Fellow Needs a Girl," and "So Far," discover why ALLEGRO was acclaimed as "A work of great beauty and purity" (Brooks Atkinson - NY Times). CELEBRATING THE 100th ANNIVERSARY OF RICHARD RODGERS' BIRTH!
