1943
Lyricist Alan Jay Lerner (right) and composer Frederick Loewe came together for their 
first Broadway show with 
What's Up?, which tried out at the Walnut in the 1943-44 
season.  It was a moderate success for the pair, who would go on to have major smash hits 
with shows like 
Brigadoon, My Fair Lady and 
Camelot.
