Music written by Claibe Richardson, whose most notable Broadway theatre score was for the briefly run 1971 musical adaptation of Truman Capote's 1951 novel "The Glass Harp," a production that has since developed a devoted cult following.

In July, 1971, Arthur Langer, whose production company produced the script, attempted to form a partnership, unsuccessfully, for the purpose of producing the musical.
