Written in 1973, the musical Seesaw takes us back to a moment of great uncertainty in New York CIty’s history. The musical tells a love story of contrasts – country boy and city girl, and, in retrospect, the dichotomy between a time of innocence and a city in dire need. For the artists, dancers and singers who gathered here, it may have been a dear old, dirty town, but it was their dear old, dirty town.
