MAN WITH A LOAD OF MISCHIEF was originally presented off-Broadway
in 1966, receiving rave reviews and garnering such comments as: "A
solid hit " and "Perfectly charming " (New York Times), "Remarkably
appealing " (New York Post), and "Sprightly and ingratiating " (NY
Daily News). Since then this delightful musical has become a
classic, seen in many productions throughout the United States and
countries across the world. The six-character show has seen four
revivals in New York City. RECORD WORLD described the show in this
encapsulation: "Set in a Regency England highway inn, it scrambles
with surprising little condescension the affairs of a gentleman who
isn't a gentleman, a lackey who isn't a lackey, a lady who isn't a
lady and a maid who isn't a maiden with grand comic style. But the
show's real strength-happily, in this musically stultifying
integrated age-lies in its tunes. If anyone would fault the songs
for not being integrated, it is because they stand out from the
text, as a good song will, and can be recalled after the last
bow."Unfortunately the complete piano-vocal score had not been
available for purchase until this current publication (2011). This
score represents the complete musical, containing every song, every
note found in the piano conductor score used in public
performances. It includes the Overture, all the songs, scene
changes, and miscellaneous cues.
