 Archy and Mehitable
A typewriter clatters away at midnight in a deserted newspaper office as
archy, the cockroach with the soul of a free-verse poet, pounds out his poems by diving
onto the keys. He writes about the denizens of Shinbone Alley: Broadway the Lightning Bug;
Tyrone T. Tattersall, the actor cat; Big Bill the Tomcat; and the Ladybugs (Who
Aren’t Exactly Ladies). But mostly he writes about his friend Mehitabel, a feline
fatale who believes herself to be Cleopatra reincarnated, but still can’t seem to say
“no” to a tomcat. This charming, sophisticated and inventive musical is based on
the poems of Don Marquis. It’s a gem of a show featuring eccentric characters, a
witty script by Mel Brooks, a Gershwin/Bernstein-inflected score and lots of delightful
singing and dancing.
