On the season 2 finale of The High School Musical Podcast, Frederick looks at the history of the 2012 musical comedy, Nice Work If You Can Get It.
Featuring the music of George and Ira Gershwin, set against a new script by Joe DiPietro, Nice Work If You Can Get It is actually an adaptation of a 1926 Gershwin musical comedy, Oh, Kay! The musical tells the story of playboy Jimmy Winter who finds himself wrapped up in a bootlegging scheme headed by Billie Bendix. When Jimmy and Billie fall into a forbidden love, hilarity ensues as a cast of characters run rampant through Jimmy's Long Island beach house.
