HAPPY DAYS: A NEW MUSICAL
Description
“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 by Garry Marshall, Happy Days - a new musical reintroduces one of America’s best loved families, the Cunninghams, and the days of 1959 Milwaukee complete with varsity sweaters, hula hoops, and jukebox sock-hoppin’. The famed drive-in malt shop and number one hang-out, Arnold’s, is in danger of demolition, so the gang teams up to save it with a dance contest and tv-worthy wrestling match. With music and lyrics by Oscar winning composer, Paul Williams, this perfectly family-friendly musical will have you rockin’ and rollin’ all week long!” - Original Production Liner Notes
Press
"It’s the women of 'Happy Days' who provide the necessary zing. Noel Molinelli is a perfect Pinky. Dressed to kill (in pink, of course) by Marianne Dominy, she sizzles in the joyful, charmingly choreographed dance sequence 'Message in the Music.' (Keith Andrews serves ably both as director and choreographer.) In her torchy showstopper 'Legend in Leather,' Ms. Molinelli delivers the goods with pizazz."
"Noel Molinelli is a feast for tired eyes as Pinky, the traffic stopping, redheaded super sexpot and love interest of Fonzie. She wears her abbreviated costumes with brash beguilingness and sings up a storm, first solo in 'The Pink’s in Town,' then mellow mood with Fonzie in 'Dancing on the Moon.’"
"What's hot in the musical? Pinky, Fonzie's love opposite to his black-and-white persona, is the show's 'Dancing on the Moon' leading lady. Noel Molinelli is up to the finger-snapping challenge to music director Andrew Austin's beat."
