THE PLAY:
Where to start.Anyone Can Whistle is a musical about political corruption and the very fine difference between sanity and conformity. The Mayoress, Cora Hoover Hooper, has led her town into bankruptcy. To save the town she creates, with the help of her merry band of corrupt city workers and politicians, a miracle which she hopes will attract paying tourists to her city. Unfortunately for her during the tourist rush, the inmates of the local asylum, called the Cookie Jar, escape and 'mix' with the tourists. A doctor named Hapgood surfaces and claims to be able to identify the ‘cookies’ from the sane members of society. Nurse Fay Apple, who let her ‘cookies’ escape by accident, reappears as a consultant from Lourdes. Hapgood and Apple hook up; maybe. Does the Mayoress's plan work? Will hilarity ensue? Perhaps one of the bravest shows Stephen Sondheim has written (along with Assassins.... and Sweeney Todd.... and Pacific Overtures
and..Follies and... oh nevermind). Whistle contains a wonderfully haunting score and wonderful book that will resonate more today than when first produced in 1964. This will be the first professional production of Anyone Can Whistle since it was done in the early seventies at Cain Park. Please join our wonderful creative team of designers, actors and technicians in checking out Anyone Can Whistle.
