"Crazy for You" is a romantic musical comedy featuring music by George and Ira Gershwin, with a book by Ken Ludwig. The show is based on the 1930s musical "Girl Crazy," and features classic Gershwin songs like "I Got Rhythm," "Embraceable You," and "Nice Work If You Can Get It."

The story centers around Bobby Child, a banker who dreams of being a dancer, and Polly Baker, a small-town girl who wants to save her family's theater. Bobby is sent to the town to foreclose on the theater, but instead falls in love with Polly and comes up with a plan to save the theater by putting on a show.

The show features high-energy dance numbers, including tap, and has been praised for its humor and charm. "Crazy for You" premiered on Broadway in 1992 and won several Tony Awards, including Best Musical.
