Good News! (1927), a musical comedy by Laurence Schwab (book), B. G. De Sylva (book, lyrics), Ray
Henderson (music), Lew
Brown (lyrics). [46th Street Theatre, 557 perf.] Tom Marlowe ( John Price Jones), the star of football‐mad Tait College's team, may not be able to play if he fails his astronomy exam. Connie Lane ( Mary Lawlor) agrees to tutor Tom, since she loves him even though she suspects he really loves another girl. Tom passes, Tait wins, and Connie gets Tom.
Notable songs: The Best Things in Life Are Free; Good News; Just Imagine; Lucky in Love; Varsity Drag. This melodic, roistering musical has often been called the quintessential musical of the 1920s. Walter
Winchell welcomed the Schwab–Frank
Mandel show as “flip, fast, furious, free and flamingly festive.” A botched 1974 revival lasted only two weeks in New York, but it has been successfully revived in regional and summer theatres.
