Review

Leonard Bernstein brings a typical sense of invention and musical ambition to this score, and Betty Comden and Adolph Green their usual street-smart New York lyrics, for a show based on the play My Sister Eileen about two siblings struggling in Greenwich Village in the 30s. Rosalind Russell leads a strong cast. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
