Take it, boy. Smell it!
You can tell it's good.
There's a great part in it for you,
Wait. This boy must be starving.
Let's take him to Sardi's.
Only two blocks more, then Sardi's.
- Shall we tell him, Lil, the big surprise?
- You tell him, Les.
Who do you think is going to do the show?
Only the greatest director /producer
in town, Jeffrey Cordova.
- Who?
- Jeff Cordova.
We're meeting him tonight, backstage,
right after the show.
- What did you say his name was?
- Jeffrey Cordova!
You're not serious.
I don't think he ever heard of this fella.
What's the matter? Don't you
get newspapers back in California?
This genius directed Man in a Mousetrap...
The Lost Nymph, and did them both
while starring in Oedipus Rex.
He's got three hits running,
and he's starring in one of them.
Only one?
This fella's fabulous, phenomenal,
fantastic! He can do anything.
Has he ever directed a musical?
What's the difference? He can do anything.
He's theatre.
He's a new kind of theatre man, Tony.
The theatres changed.
Lots of things have changed.
They certainly have.
What's happened to 42nd Street?
I just can't get over it.
I just can't understand it.
This used to be the great theatre street
of the town. The New Amsterdam.
I had one of my biggest successes there.
Ran a year and a half.
Noel Coward and Gertie
were here in Private Lives in the Selwyn.
Strictly carriage trade,
nothing but the finest.
First show I ever did was at the Eltinge,
and I don't believe that's here anymore.
What's the matter?
- Can you put your weight on it?
- I'll try.
- I'm sorry, fella! I didn't mean it.
- Okay, forget it.
- Let's get him a cab.
Taxi!
Here, let me carry you.
My dear man, it's entirely my fault
and I apologize.
Here's for your trouble.
Lean on me.
- I can stand anything but pain.
- You'll be all right.
It's swelling. I'm getting a haematoma.
I want some cold compresses!
Not hot, but cold.
Listen, you go over to Sardi's.
I'll see you later.
Driver, take them on over.
Order me a steak.
I'll see you in a few minutes.
PENNY ARCADE:
Excuse me.
I'm just a little bit fuzzy.
Wasn't this formerly the Eltinge theatre?
What are you doing in there?
The GORILLA'S BRIDE
ELECTRICITY IS LIFE
MADAME OLGA - PREDICTIONS
When you feel as low
as the bottom of a well
and can't get out of the mood
Do something to perk yourself up
and change your attitude
Give a tug to your tie
Put a crease in your pants
But if you really want to feel fine
give your shoes a shine
When there's a shine on your shoes
there's a melody in your heart
