City of Angels is a musical comedy with music by Cy Coleman lyrics by David Zippel and book by Larry Gelbart. The musical weaves together two plots the real world of a writer trying to turn his book into a screenplay and the reel world of the fictional film. The musical is a homage to the film noir genre of motion pictures that rose to prominence in the 1940s.
