Songs that are melodic, lyrical, toe-tapping, and yet, forgotten - why? Barry Manilow re-introduces great songs from forgotten shows in They Write the Songs - The Broadway Edition.
Tonight, Barry features 'High Spirits', the musical version of Noel Coward's 'Blythe Spirit', which was directed by The Master himself; 'Higher and Higher' by Rodgers and Hart which created the all time standard, 'It Never Entered My Mind', but which only lasted for eighty four performances; and 'Two By Two' a musical that starred Danny Kaye as Noah. This show was all set to become a major hit, until disaster struck. To find out what happened and why the memory of the show can still turn producers, directors, writers and performers pale, tune in to this evening's episode of 'They Write the Songs - The Broadway Edition!'.
