Minsky’s is a musical by Bob Martin (book) Charles Strouse (music) and Susan Birkenhead (lyrics) and is loosely based on the 1968 movie The Night They Raided Minsky’s. Set during the Great Depression era in Manhattan the story centers around a jaded burlesque producer (Billy Minsky) a politician trying to shut him down (Randolph Sumner) and an innocent young girl who gets caught between them (Sumner’s daughter Mary).
