The fun begins when the Queen of Country Music, who lives in a 28-room trailer, schemes to steal his prize-winning song. The story takes place in Music City, U.S.A.-- back in the day when the only thing bigger than the hits were the hairdos. That’s where our hero meets the lovable cast of characters in this colorful retro fantasy world featuring a tribe of tap dancing Indians, a choir of heavenly angels, and wigs that magically sing.

Lucky Guy is a fresh, new and totally original musical comedy guaranteed to delight the whole family. It has a fast and funny plot that will have you roaring with laughter and a memorable score filled with songs you’ll be humming long after you leave the theatre. The real heart and soul of the show, however, is the moral of the story: it’s not what you have in life; it’s who you have to share it with that makes you a lucky guy.
REVIEWS:

"Lucky Guy is a fun, sprightly musical that is difficult to resist!"

 The New York Times

"As refreshing as a glass of lemonade on a hot summer day. Lucky Guy wins your heart!"

 TheaterMania

"Williard Beckham's charming new musical is loaded with flair! A playfully unrepentant swank permeates Lucky Guy, though it's the fine music that carries the show and should please even the most conservative of country music purists."

 ABC News

"Lucky Guy is witty, surprising, exuberant and just plain fun as any musical in New York this season."

 Cabaret Scenes

"More fun than a Louisiana hayride!"
