When George Gershwin died just a few weeks short of his 39th birthday, his brother and writing partner, Ira, was devastated and withdrew from public life and writing. It took Kurt Weill, Moss Hart, and a musical about psychoanalysis to get Ira writing again, and on this week’s Dress Circle (9/28 7:00 p.m.), we’ll be looking at some of the works that Ira penned after George.

This program is taking a second look at some of the numerous ballets found in Broadway musicals from the familiar, "Oklahoma!" to the totally forgotten, "Shangri-La."
