When Oliver is captured for a theft he did not commit, the benevolent victim, Mr Brownlow, takes him in.

Paul Lowry “...Jaunty with moments of captivating eccentricity.” The New York Times “...apt and original.” The New York Post By the Tony Award winning authors of Falsettos, here is an energetic, sardonic, often comical musical about a composer during a medical emergency. Gordon collapses into his lunch and awakes in the hospital surrounded by his maritime-enthusiast lover, his mother, a co-worker, the doctor and the nurses. Reluctantly, he had been composing a song for a children’s television show that features a frog- Mr. Bungee- and the specter of the this large green character and unfinished work haunts him throughout his medical ordeal. What was thought to be a tumor turns out to be something more operable and Gordon recovers, grateful for a chance to compose the songs he yearns to produce.
