I Got the Show Right Here Book

"[A] highly entertaining showbiz memoir . . . The shows were fantastic." - The Washington Post "We laughed and we cried at Cy Feuer's wonderfully warm, brash, and colorful memoir of his life in the New York theater and happily recommend it to anyone who has ever been to a Broadway musical. . ." - Mel Brooks & Thomas Meehan.
