WONDERFUL TOWN is about the adventures and misadventures of two sisters in the 1930’s who move from their comfortable hometown in Ohio to Greenwich Village, a bohemian area in New York City, to fulfill their dreams. Ruth is an aspiring writer, average in appearance and can’t keep a man’s attention – no matter what. Eileen, a fledgling actress, is Ruth’s opposite. She is a beautiful dancer, who – without even trying – has men falling at her feet.

The girls end up with a one month lease on a tiny, basement studio apartment near a subway construction site. What it lacks in charm and privacy, the room makes up for in location. The neighborhood is full of interesting people like Appopolous, their landlord and an artist, Wreck (a former football player) and his live-in fiancée Helen, and many more colorful characters. From the composer of West Side Story comes a charming romantic comedy just in time for the holidays.
