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.
The show 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. 
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!
