This new musical based on the hit television series reintroduces one of America’s best-loved families, the Cunninghams, to a whole new generation, taking audiences back to the days of 1959 Milwaukee, complete with varsity sweaters, hula hoops and jukebox sock-hoppin’.

When the famed drive-in malt shop and number one hangout, Arnold’s, is in danger of demolition, the gang teams up to save it with a dance contest and a TV-worthy wrestling match.

With music and lyrics by Oscar-winner Paul Williams and a book by the TV series’ original creator Garry Marshall, this perfect family-friendly musical will have you rockin’ and rollin’ all week long!
