"It's been almost 40 years since the hit TV show "Happy Days" was on the air, yet the iconic characters of the "The Fonz," Richie Cunningham, Potsie, Joanie, and Pinky Tuscadero are most likely still ingrained in the memories of anyone who watched the weekly escapades of this group of Milwaukee friends in the 1950s. With a book by the show's creator Garry Marshall and a score by Oscar-winning composer Paul Williams, it's a shame the stage musical adaptation isn't as memorable as an episode of the TV show. However, Happy Days: A New Musical is an energetic and fun, nostalgia-laden romp through the past. Arizona Broadway Theatre's production features sure-footed direction, sharp choreography, and a large cast who exude charm and charisma as these beloved characters."   -Gil Benbrook, Talkin' Broadway (click here to read the complete review)
