Nice Work If You Can Get It

1 Nov 2024 to 10 Nov 2024

A hilarious screwball comedy, originally opening on Broadway in 2012 and utilising songs from brilliant George and Ira Gershwin, Nice Work If You Can Get It is the tale of Jimmy Winter, a wealthy and carefree playboy living the good life in the midst of Prohibition. Jimmy has an unfortunate habit of marrying chorus girls, until he’s forced to marry a woman of substance – Eileen Evergreen, the finest interpreter of modern dance in the world.

On the weekend of their nuptials, Jimmy meets Billie Bendix, a tough-as-nails bootlegger who has stashed 400 cases of gin in Jimmy’s basement. Knocked out by this one-of-a-kind woman, Jimmy must deal with his high-strung fiancée and an assortment of bootleggers, prohibitionists, and chorus girls, as well as one very moralistic senator.

Highlights from the score include Gershwin classics such as ‘Fascinating Rhythm’, ‘Let’s Call The Whole Thing Off’, ‘Someone To Watch Over Me’, ‘Sweet and Low Down’, ‘Delishious’, and, of course, the title song.  

Join the QP Family for a night of toe tapping fun for all the family!
