About the Show
Goodbye gray skies, hello blue!

Happy days are here again with Richie, Potsie, Ralph Malph and the 
unforgettable "king of cool" Arthur "The Fonz" Fonzarelli. Based on the 
hit Paramount Pictures television series, Happy Days, A New Musical 
reintroduces one of America's best loved families, the Cunninghams -- 
yes, Howard, Marion and Joanie are here too -- to a whole new 
generation of kids and parents.

The famed drive-in malt shop and number one hangout, Arnold's, is in 
danger of demolition. So the gang teams up to save it with a dance 
contest and a TV-worthy wrestling match. Even Pinky Tuscadero, 
Fonzie's childhood sweetheart, returns to help and -- lo and behold! -- 
they rekindle their old flame.

With amazing music from Oscar-winner Paul Williams and a book by the 
TV series original creator Garry Marshall, this musical return to the days 
of 1959 Milwaukee complete with varsity sweaters, hula hoops, and 
jukebox sock-hoppin' fun. This perfectly family-friendly musical will have 
you rockin' and rollin' all week long!

loaded with charisma, older than the other kids. In his late teens or early

he wears mechanics coveralls.

American, honest, reliable.
