Pot Of Gold

Synopsis:
Young Sean O'Flanagan arrives unannounced from Ireland at uncle Jamie Sullivan's Pot of Gold Irish pub in New York to get rich and finds Jamie facing eviction from his landlord, Patrick O'Houlihan, who plans to erect a new building. Then Sean and the landlord's daughter, Kathleen O'Houlihan, fall in love, and troubles multiply. a traditional musical comedy with twenty-two songs in Two acts, with eight principals and one set. Pot of Gold is tuneful, comic, and easy to present. From the opening, "We're Here!" to the finale, "Pot of Gold," it's a love story including "How Can This Not Be Love" to "It's The Irish Time to Marry" and "Jamie's Lament," as the hypochondriacal pub owner bewails his aches and pains brought on by financial woes. This musical with a cast of Broadway, Off-Broadway and Lambs Club professionals was enthusiastically received by Lambs Club and Women's National Republican Club members in the grand ballroom of the Lambs Club across from Rockefeller Center in New York.
