Annie Get Your Gun scored a bull’s-eye when it returned to Broadway in 1999. Peter Stone reshaped the 1946 book to create a Wild West show-within-a-show that frames the ageless “Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better” love story of sharpshooters Annie Oakley and Frank Butler. Joined to the new book, of course, is that amazing Irving Berlin score, featuring hit after hit after hit. “Irving Berlin’s greatest achievement in the theater,” wrote the New York Post. Annie Get Your Gun “will always be a musical for the ages, one of the Broadway theatre’s enduring triumphs.”
