Charles Strouse takes listeners back to the creation of "Bye Bye Birdie", including the behind the scenes challenges of retooling the musical for Chita Rivera and figuring out how to make Dick Van Dyke a star, and the multi-year struggle to get a certain redheaded orphan named "Annie" into production. Original airdate - August 26, 2005.
