Storyline

Crazy For You Musical London tickets give you a chance to witness the life of Bobby Child as he struggles to balance his desire to pursue a career in show business and run his family's bank in New York against his desire. He is burdened with his affluent mother and fiancée's expectations. Bobby grudgingly travels to Deadrock, Nevada, to foreclose on a mortgage at his mother's request, where he meets Polly, the love of his life. He discovers, though, that the mortgage is secured by a run-down Victorian theatre, and Polly is the owner’s daughter. Bobby makes the desperate decision to stage a performance, replete with dancers from the New York Zangler Follies, in an effort to regain Polly's affection and rescue the theatre. But what happens when Polly finds out the reason for Bobby’s presence in Deadrock?
