Theater; The Butler Did It (Got to Broadway)
IT has not been the most melodious journey, bringing By Jeeves to Broadway in the five and a half years since this modest musical, inspired by the stories of P. G. Wodehouse, opened at the Stephen Joseph Theater in Scarborough in the north of England. Thats the playhouse run by Sir Alan Ayckbourn, 62, the prolific dramatist of some 60 shows. Back in 1975, he teamed up with a no less established composer named Andrew Lloyd Webber -- who at 53 is now Lord Lloyd-Webber -- on a West End flop entitled Jeeves. Several decades later, the two refashioned the project almost entirely, winning critical praise and a West End transfer. Now, after four separate American engagements -- the first in 1996 with the Goodspeed Opera House, the most recent in March at the Pittsburgh Public Theater -- and a Canadian DVD, the show has reached Broadway, at the Helen Hayes Theater, where it opens tonight, directed by Sir Alan, who wrote the book and lyrics..
