REVIEW: www.broadwaysbiggesthits.com By Chris Curcio "Burgertown"
is a cute little show with a simple plot about the evils of corruption
and the temptations and allures of big franchise money. Set in a lonely
Chicago diner that has hardly any business, one of its employees
invents the Triangle Burger that sweeps the town and turns the business
into a big success. The original owner dies, passing the business to
the inventor and his longtime love, a waitress. A sexy new Miss
Burgertown arrives and pushes the boss's old flame out as she woos and
wins the gullible guy. She later tries to take over the huge franchise
business leaving the inventor with the original diner. He reunites with
his old flame and every thing ends happily. The score, by Jamey Strawn
with lyrics by Christine Jones and a book and story by Ken Jones, in a
cute country western style, is breezy and fun. The
cast is solid and the show looks to have a future throughout America
where we can relate to the concepts the show reminds us of so lovingly.
