Even if you’ve never seen Neil Simon’s musical comedy Sweet Charity, you’ve heard its most enduring song, “Big Spender,” which received radio play and has been covered by the likes of Tom Waits and others. The play itself chronicles the romantic ups and downs of a dancer-for-hire in Times Square. With its screwy sense of humor, as well as enduring Bob Fosse choreography, Sweet Charity’s a reliably raunchy riot.
Fridays through Sundays, August 15 through August 24. 8pm Friday and Saturday, 2:30pm Sunday. $15-$35. Croswell Opera House, 129 E. Maumee St., Adrian, MI. 517-263-6868. croswell.org
