Aging Irish dreamer Finian McLonerghan and his savvy daughter Sharon travel to America to bury a small pot of gold, which Finian believes will grow to yield millions. When they arrive in fictional Rainbow Valley in Missitucky, the McLonerghans encounter goodhearted sharecroppers, bigoted blowhard politicians… and a romantic leprechaun! One of America’s classic and most original musicals, Finian’s Rainbow features a beloved score, including hits like “Old Devil Moon,” “Look to the Rainbow” and “How Are Things In Glocca Morra?”
Finian’s Rainbow opened on Broadway at the 46th Street Theatre on January 10, 1947, starring Ella Logan, Albert Sharpe and David Wayne. The show played for 725 performances, and was revived several times on Broadway: in 1955, 1960 and in 2009 at the St. James Theatre, where it starred Kate Baldwin, Terri White, Cheyenne Jackson and Christopher Fitzgerald.
