While the songs are all mostly instantly forgettable, and the plot isn't much better, Arizona Broadway has a talented cast of local performers who lovingly throw themselves into these iconic characters, providing a big shot of nostalgia for fans of the TV show in a fairly amusing and fun theatrical endeavor. Sherwood Schwartz created the TV show (he also was behind another culture pop hit show, "The Brady Bunch") and in the 1990s he crafted Gilligan's Island: The Musical, with a book by Schwartz and his son Lloyd and songs by Schwartz's daughter and son-in-law, Hope and Laurence Juber.
