George and Ira Gershwin's Oh Kay!

Why is the rum gone?

George and Ira Gershwin's mad-cap Prohibition Era comedy returns to New York in this Theatre Row revival. Concerning the adventures of two English nobles who've become bootleggers, and Jimmy Winter, the notorious ex-playboy who's Long Island mansion they 'borrow' for their operation's headquarters, Oh, Kay! contains some Gershwin classics such as 'Clap Yo' hands' and 'Someone to Watch Over Me' as well as enough razzmatazz to transport you straight back to the heady world of the Roaring Twenties- Gatsby this ain't!

liquor, love and laughs, the story of Oh, Kay!

Whilst owner Jimmy Winter is on honeymoon with his new wife Constance, a rag-tag group seem to have taken up residence in his Long Island mansion, including the Duke of Durham and Lady Kay, two English rum runners who are using his spacious basement as the center of their operation. When Jimmy and Constance return home to find their marrige is actually bigamous, Jimmy is technically still married to his first wife, Constance leaves angrily. But Jimmy's attentions are elsewhere, on Lady Kay, who just so happens to be the beautiful girl that saved him from drowning the previous summer. Hearts are entwined, japes are had, so far so good, but there's just the little problem of the feds, who are more than wise to the operation, and Constance, who isn't going to go down without a fight.
