Kristin Chenoweth appeared in Theater appearances, New York City Center Encores!, Strike up the Band (1998) as Anne Draper.
Strike Up the Band is a Musical theatre with a book by Morrie Ryskind, lyrics by Ira Gershwin, and music by George Gershwin. During its original 1927 pre- Broadway (theatre) run, the political satire closed after a Saturday night performance in Philadelphia, fulfilling original librettist's George S. Kaufman's definition of satire as "what closes on Saturday night." The Gershwins revised the story with Ryskind for the 1930 Broadway run; they also removed the song The Man I Love (song), now a Gershwin standard, from the show. Aside from the title tune, the 1940 Judy Garland- Mickey Rooney musical film Strike Up the Band had no relation to the stage production.
