Have you ever dreamed of getting involved in a big-time Broadway production? Join us in the elegant Park Avenue apartment of Dr. Sid and Sylvia Lipbalm, as two wannabe producers, Jed and Boyd, try to line up backers for “The Big Bang”, the most expensive and lavish Broadway musical ever written. With a budget of $83,000,000, a cast of 318, 6428 costumes and 1400 wigs, this show will depict the entire history of the world.
But, since the two guys who hope to put on the show don’t have money to hire actors to preview it for their potential backers, they announce that they, with only the help of a piano player, are going to perform a sampling of numbers themselves. From the formation of the planets to the building of the pyramids. From Napolean’s France to the present. Adam and Eve, Nefertiti and the slaves, Caesar, Mrs. Ghandi, Attila, Columbus, Minnehaha, Tokyo Rose, Eva Braum and more. Will Broadway ever be the same? Surely, the Lipbalm apartment won’t.
