Go-Bang

Recently Updated

"Go-Bang" is a musical comedy that premiered in London's West End in 1916, with music by Louis A. Hirsch and book and lyrics by Harry B. Smith. The show revolves around a group of American vaudevillians who become stranded in a small European kingdom and become embroiled in the politics of the country. The story is filled with mistaken identities, romantic entanglements, and comic misunderstandings.

The musical's score includes songs such as "My Dreamy China Lady", "Go-Bang Tango", and "The Tango Moon". Despite its popularity at the time, "Go-Bang" has largely been forgotten today and is rarely revived.
