摘要
1944年,贝蒂·科登和阿道夫·格林从好莱坞回到纽约,他们不知道接下来要做什么。他们找到了一些在夜总会表演的机会,但直到老朋友伦纳德·伯恩斯坦(Leonard Bernstein)和杰罗姆·罗宾斯(Jerome Robbins)找到他们,让他们为一部音乐剧写一本书,这部音乐剧的灵感来自两人共同创作的芭蕾舞剧《自由幻想》(Fancy Free),他们才找到了真正的立足点。当然,这次合作成为了具有里程碑意义的音乐剧《小镇风云》(On The Town),科登和格林不仅为它写了剧本和歌词;在1945年12月开演时,他们还扮演了两个主要角色。
Betty Comden and Adolph Green returned to New York from Hollywood in 1944 unsure of what they would do next for work. They found some performing in nightclubs, but it wasn’t until they were approached by Leonard Bernstein, an old friend, and Jerome Robbins about developing a book for a musical that was to be inspired by Fancy Free, a ballet that the men had created together, that they found their genuine footing. The collaboration became, of course, the landmark musical On the Town, and not only did Comden and Green write the book and lyrics for it; they also had two of the primary roles in the show when it opened in December 1945.
