Robin and the 7 Hoods

Robin and the 7 Hoods, a new musical comedy, will swing onto Broadway in 2010. The musical, written by Sammy Cahn and James Van Heusen ("My Kind of Town," "Come Fly With Me") will adapt the 1964 Robin and the 7 Hoods for the stage, highlighting the "sexy" 60s, "where James Bond reigned supreme, martinis flowed freely, and Sinatra and Martin ruled the night," according to the press release.

Producer Bruce Charet said in a statement, “The intersection of the sexual revolution and the Camelot years will come to life every night on our stage. That moment in time, which personifies 'cool' is at the heart of our show and, thankfully, we have the wonderful songs by Cahn and Van Heusen which so eloquently express all that make that period unique.”
