NO, NO, NANETTE is a classic musical comedy with a glittering score by Vincent Youmans, one of the most important and prolific composers of the 1920s. This Rutgers-Camden Theater production, in collaboration with Symphony in C, features professional and student actors performing with a thrilling 31-piece orchestra.

The show was famously revived on Broadway in 1971 at the height of the nostalgia craze staffing the legendary tapper Ruby Keeler, earning multiple Tony Awards. Our production will be using the 1971 orchestrations by Ralph Burns and dance arrangements by Luther Henderson.

The wacky story involves three couples sharing a cottage in Atlantic City in the midst of a blackmail scheme, with plenty of deception, romantic mishaps, and comical misunderstandings. The score includes two of the best-known songs in musical theatre — “Tea for Two” and “I Want to be Happy”.
