Damn Yankees at Cockpit In Court
author: Leonard Taube
Anyone ever get so angry with you that they’ve told you to “Go to the devil!”? Well, now you can (so-to-speak) and enjoy the trip as well! Cockpit in Court Summer Theatre (in residence at CCBC Essex) is currently putting on the 1955 musical comedy Damn Yankees. With a book by George Abbott and Douglass Wallop, and music and lyrics by Richard Adler and Jerry Ross, Damn Yankees is set during the 1950’s during a time when the New York Yankees dominated major league baseball.
