Musical based on characters created by Al Capp
Book by Norman Panama & Melvin Frank
Music by Gene De Paul
Lyrics by Johnny Mercer
Daisy Mae is bent on capturing Li'l Abner for herself on the next Sadie Hawkins
Day when the women make the running. However, things are not quite as simple as that. Daisy Mae has a rival for
Abner's affections, Appassionata von Climax. She has engaged a professional aide to help her win the race. It is
Evil Eye Fleagle who produces his own distraction for the men, Stupefyin' Jones. But, a cloud hangs over
Dogpatch. The US Government want to use the town where they all live as a site for atomic bomb experiments.
Dogpatch was chosen as nothing important or historical ever took place there.
The men-folk are taken away from the town for scientific experiments to make
them handsome but they become completely uninterested in the opposite sex.
Eventually, the men are restored to their former selves, ugly but potent.
Marryin' Sam meanwhile has unearthed some salient facts about the founder of the town, the sensible but cowardly
Jubilation T. Cornpone, with a catalogue of his civil war disasters. This historical reference means the town
can be saved and even though the Sadie Hawkins Day race doesn't turn out quite as planned (Earthquake McGoon
catches Daisy and Appassionata von Climax gets Abner) by the end of the show Abner and Daisy Mae are married to
each other, the ceremony being performed, of course, by Marryin' Sam.
