ABOUT RODGERS & HART
Richard Rodgers (Composer, 1902-79) and Lorenz Hart (Lyricist, 1895-1943) began their collaboration while still in school at Columbia. Their breakthrough came with the score for a 1925 charity show, The Garrick Gaities, which featured their iconic song "Manhattan." From there the duo went on to create an established career working for stage and film (Musicals: Pal Joey; On Your Toes; Babes In Arms; The Boys from Syracuse and more; Film: Love Me Tonight; The Phantom President; Hallelujah, I'm a Bum; Mississippi). Together they wrote over 500 songs and 28 stage musicals. In early 1943, the partnership disbanded temporarily early when Rodgers collaborated with Oscar Hammerstein II on Oklahoma! The Rodgers & Hart partnership resumed with a revision of their 1927 musical comedy A Connecticut Yankee, and the new production opened on Broadway November 17, 1943. Already ill at the time, Lorenz Hart died less than a week later. Following Hart's death, Rodgers pursued a career with Oscar Hammerstein II.
