Ira Gershwin's Lady, Be Good, opened New York City Center's 2015 Encores! season, from February 4 - 8, 2015. Lady, Be Good was directed by Mark Brokaw and choreographed by Randy Skinner. Founding Encores! Music Director Rob Fisher retunred as Guest Music Director, and has supervised the restoration of the Gershwins' original score.

Lady, Be Goodtells the story ofa penniless brother (Danny Gardner) and sister (Patti Murin) who crash a garden party in hopes of some quick nourishment. They resolve to marry for money, but love gets in the way, as it usually does. Before true love wins out, they encounter Mexican gangsters, crooked lawyers, wealthy socialites, and a song-and-dance man with fascinating rhythm (Tommy Tune).

The 1924 musical embodies the madcap spirit of the Roaring Twenties, when George and Ira Gershwin's first hit collaboration ushered in the Golden Age of American musical comedy. Hot off the triumph of Rhapsody in Blue, George and his brother Ira delivered a jazz-age score that featured 'Fascinating Rhythm,' 'Lady, Be Good,' and 'The Half of it, Dearie, Blues.' Lady, Be Good opened at the Liberty Theater on December 1, 1924 and ran for 330 performances. It has music by George Gershwin and lyrics by Ira Gershwin with a book by Guy Bolton and Fred Thompson.
