By Jupiter (1942), a musical comedy by Richard
Rodgers (book, music), Lorenz
Hart (book, lyrics). [
Shubert Theatre, 427 perf.] So long as Queen Hippolyta ( Benay Venuta) of Pontus can retain her magic strength‐giving girdle, she and her Amazons will rule over their milksop husbands. The Greeks, led by Theseus ( Ronald Graham) and Hercules ( Ralph Dumke), invade Pontus, hoping to capture the girdle and elevate the hapless consort Sapiens ( Ray
Bolger) to the throne. Their swords fail them but their sexual prowess prevails and Theseus is awarded the hand of Hippolyta's sister Antiope ( Constance Moore).
Notable songs: Careless Rhapsody; Everything I've Got; Nobody's Heart. Based on Julian F. Thompson's
The Warrior Husband, the musical (produced by Dwight Deere
Wiman and ) was Rodgers and Hart's final collaboration. When it was successfully revived Off Broadway in 1967,
Variety observed that it “is still a melodious laughrouser.”
