Taking a page from the Hollywood musical of the 1940's, YANK! is a gorgeous big band era musical drama that begins with our hero finding an old diary in a junk shop of one Private Stewart. Suddenly we are transported back in time to explore the tumultuous relationship between "Stu" and his reluctant new 'friend' Mitch. The war is a backdrop for the war within as the two struggle to find themselves and accept that their love is possible and yet fraught with danger.
With music by Joseph Zellnik; book and lyrics by David Zellnik, YANK! will be presented today, May 14, and May 15, 16, 21, 22, 23 at 7:30 p.m.; May 17 & 24 at 5:30 p.m.; and May 23 at 2:00 p.m. at The Henry Clay Theatre, 604 South Third Street, 3rd Floor, Downtown Louisville.
