Details

Wintergreen sweeps to victory as President of the USA, but immediately causes a furore, when he marries Mary, the homely American, and not the French starlet he's pledged to make First Lady. Fellow politicians are furious, until Mary announces her pregnancy. Will an all-American baby and home-made corn muffins melt the fickle heart of the Senate, and save Wintergreen? Of thee I Sing was the biggest musical hit of the 1930's and one of the most revolutionary musicals ever to open on Broadway. Sung in English. The performance lasts approx. 2 hours 45 mins
