Kander & Ebb’s The Happy Time (1968) starred Robert Goulet (fresh from Camelot) as a world-traveling photographer who returns home and tempts his godson with dreams of escape and no responsibility. David Wayne originally was the father of both George and Goulet. Now George S. Irving will take that role. Songs: "A Certain Girl," "Please Stay," "Tomorrow Morning," and "Seeing Things."
