Hasty Pudding Theatricals go out on the road again this year with a new musical comedy, "Heart of Gold." The show first opens at Harvard on December 14, the Pudding announced yesterday.
Pudding actors last went trouping with "Here's the Pitch" in 1947. Last year's "Tomorrow is Manana" never left home.
The play will run from December 14 to 22 in the Hasty Pudding Clubhouse. The players will then do a one-night stand in New Haven on December 23, and put on four shows in New York, December 26 to 29.
"Heart of Gold," concerns a starving Broadway actress and her whole starving company, who attempt to open a summer theater in a barn, left to the actress by a philanthropic aunt. The plot evolves around the fun and games the actors have with the sheriff and local motion picture theater owners.
Book and lyrics are by William S. Wheeling, II '50. Wheeling collaborated with Russell A. Ames '51 on the music. Gerhardt N. Liebman '50 will do the company's sets.
Casting will begin Thursday and is, as usual, open to non-members of the club.
