Four Rivers Charter Public School

The Four Rivers Drama Club is proud to present Nice Work If You Can Get It, a screwball musical comedy of Gershwin tunes set in the Prohibition era of roaring 20’s New York.
Jimmy Winter is about to get married for the third—no, wait, fourth time, when he crosses paths with Billie Bendix, the most successful bootlegger in the business. Billie and her partners set their sights on Jimmy’s beach house as the perfect place to stash 400 bottles of gin, but they aren’t anticipating the would-be groom to show up with wedding party in tow. What else for the bootleggers to do but pretend to be hired help and keep everyone out of the cellar? As this madcap farce escalates, Jimmy and Billie band together to maintain the ruse...and realize the biggest risk of all is falling in love.
With a soundtrack of Gershwin classics, Nice Work If You Can Get It is a laugh-out-loud crowdpleaser that will have you singing long after the curtain falls.
The Four Rivers Drama Club is directed by Leah Plath and musically directed by Joshua Hornick, with Serena Torrey as set designer and builder. Student leadership includes Stella Langlands as choreographer and Ren Waggenbeek as stage manager. The musical involves over 40 students from 7th-12th grade in the cast, stage crew, tech team, and pit band.
