Playbill: The musical, which played Broadway in 1919, was written when Gershwin was just 21 years of age. Following its Broadway bow, the musical toured the Northeast in 1920, and California in 1922. A 1926 regional production featuring Busby Berkeley marked the musical's final "official" production, with much of the show's book and score disappearing from public view in the ensuing years. Wisconsin's Third Avenue Playhouse presented a reproduction based on then-extant materials in 2019.
