Following the hilarious debacle of Blue Heaven, librettist Philip Cavanaugh has again allowed himself to be drawn into a fiendish money-making plan by his friend and ex-lover Gilbert Selwyn. To this end Philip enters the Champion entourage - a clan so poisonous they make the Borgias look Amish - with his songwriting partner Claire.
Gilbert Selwyn, an unemployed, gay schemer, and Moira Finch, his demonically conniving fiancee, engage their friends, their families, and their wits in a plan to stage a wedding and make off with a fortune in wedding gifts. Set in contemporary New York and reminiscent of the comedies of P.G. Wodehouse and Preston Sturges, Blue Heaven is the uproarious tale of a mostly unlikely couple and their brilliant plan to earn a fortune on the way to the altar.
