A Connecticut Yankee
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Connecticut Yankee was a 1927 musical by Rodgers and Hart, based upon A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, a novel by American humorist Mark Twain. Among the best remembered songs are the up-tempo duet "Thou Swell,"[1] and the warm ballad, "My Heart Stood Still."[2] For a 1943 revival, Rodgers and Hart added several additional songs (including "Can't You Do a Friend a Favor?"[3]) in what was to be their final collaboration.
