Home > No, No Nanette

No, No, Nanette is a Broadway musical first produced in 1925 by H.H Frazee, who financed the production, at least in part, by selling baseball superstar Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees five years earlier (Frazee owned the Boston Red Sox at the time).

The lyrics are by Irving Caesar and Otto Harbach, with music by Vincent Youmans. The songs include the well-known "Tea for Two" and "I Want to Be Happy".

In 1950, a film entitled Tea for Two, about an acting troupe mounting a production of No, No, Nanette, was released. It starred Doris Day, Gordon MacRae, Eve Arden, and Billy De Wolfe.

There was a notable revival on Broadway in 1971, with a book adapted by Burt SheveloveBurt Shevelove ( 1915- 8 April 1981) is an American musical theater writer, lyricist, librettist, and director.
