Subways Are for Sleeping features a score by Jule Styne and book and lyrics by Betty Comden and Adolph Green. The musical, according to press notes, "tells the tale of a Angie, a lady reporter sent to get the scoop on a segment of NYC society that lives by their own rules. These carefree souls take up odd jobs to earn enough to get a place to sleep and food to eat, eschewing a drone-like existence. When Angie learns how the other half lives, she begins to see there might be another way to experience the world."
The Duplex is located at 61 Christopher Street. Tickets will be available beginning Oct. 1 by calling (212) 255-5438 or by visiting www.TheDuplex.com.
