No No Nanette
No No Nantte tickets have been sold since 1925 when the show first opened at the Palace Theatre in London's West End. The musical comedy written by Irving Caesar and Otto Harbach ran for 665 performances and drew the attention of Broadway. That same year, No No Nanette opened on Broadway, beginning its 321 performance production run.
The musical was an enterprise undertaken by Caesar and Harbach to transform the play My Lady Friends by Emil Nyitray and Frank Mandel into a light-hearted musical. The music was written by Vincent Youmans and the musical gave theater two timeless hits, Tea for Two and I Want to Be Happy. Tickets were sold to countless performances and at the box office to three movie adaptations. Two, the ones released in 1930 and 1940, were direct adaptations from the stage show, but the third, released in 1950, was loosely based on musical and was entitled Tea for Two.
The production is so loved because of its atmosphere of good intentions and scheduling mishaps. No No Nanette tells the story of Jimmy Smith, a millionaire Bible publisher who tries to use his wealth to innocently aid young women. He and his frugal wife Sue have a ward, Nanette, whom they try to tame. She has a wild side she wants to explore, but she also has a beau, named Tom Trainor, who wants only to marry her.
Jimmy also has taken to the idea of becoming a benefactor to three young women, but finds that his good intentions are quickly being used against him to blackmail him for even more money. Jimmy recruits his lawyer and his Tom's uncle Billy to try and separate himself from the greedy grasps of the benefactors. The lawyer and Billy buy tickets to meet the three women at the Smith's Atlantic City residence.

Show Biography - No No Nanette
|
 The problem is that Sue and Billy's wife, Lucille, have decided to take off to the same cottage while their husbands are away on business. In addition, Jimmy has decided not to go to Philadelphia as planned, but to arrive at the same home with Nanette who seeks excitement. Everyone in the audience and on stage have tickets to a volatile situation.
There are accusations of adultery, misinterpreted intentions of marriage, and plenty of song and dance along the way. In the end the truth comes out and the harmless hilarity ends in a sensational tap number by Sue, to woo her husband back.
No No Nanette has been the ire of all those with Red Sox tickets. For years the rumors led Boston sports fans to believe that the reason Red Sox owner Harry Frazee sold Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees was to finance the musical. Of course Ruth's contract was sold in 1919 and the musical opened in 1925, clearing No No Nanette of any blame for the "Curse of the Bambino."
In reality it was the play on which No No Nanette was based, My Lady Friends, that was financed by the departure of Babe Ruth. OnlineSeats is not going to sell a baseball player's contract anytime soon, but they will have No No Nanette tickets for the major productions throughout the United States and even in England.
