About the "Hallelujah, Baby!" Stage Show
The plot of the show was based on the book by Arthur Laurents. The musical was staged on Broadway in 1967 and closed in 1968. In total, the performance was shown for 293 times. B. Shevelove was a director. K. Carlisle was responsible for the choreography. The Eckarts created the scenic design, I. Sharaff – clothes and T. Musser – lighting. They said that the show had a political hint, but the creators always denied it. Actors were the following: A. Case, R. Hooks, L. Uggams & M. Cooper.
The musical made a great success. It was the nominee for nine Tony Awards. The show won five of them. The production was even awarded as the best musical of that year. L. Uggams, who played the main role of Georgina, was recognized as the best musical actress. The second version appeared in New Jersey in 2004. It included new songs, which were written by A. Green. The following year the musical was seen by the audience in Washington.
