Anyone Can Whistle

Book by Arthur Laurents

The Notion

"A fanciful story about a small economically depressed American town whose venal Mayoress gets the bright idea of arranging a fake miracle to attract tourists. The tourists arrive, but they become intermixed with the inmates of the local Cookie Jar, a rest home for non-conformists. Farcical complications ensue."

- Stephen Sondheim in Finishing the Hat
