A Musical Comedy
Book by Zelda Sears
Lyrics by Zelda Sears and Walter De Loen
Set in the lively era of the Jazz Age, Lollipop encapsulates the vibrant spirit and playful innocence of 1920s musical theater. Zelda Sears, a talented writer, actress, and lyricist, brought her comedic sensibilities to *Lollipop,* crafting a lighthearted narrative.
The storyline of the musical revolves around the classic theme of love and mistaken identity, with the plot following a spirited young woman who finds herself entangled in unexpected circumstances. The central character, whose nickname is “Lollipop,” is quick-witted and resourceful, embodying the flapper-era archetype of the modern, independent woman.
Sears, known for her sharp comedic timing and engaging characters, infused Lollipop with both humor and warmth, creating a protagonist who was both relatable and aspirational for contemporary audiences. Walter De Leon’s contributions to the lyrics added a playful layer to the show’s musical numbers, which were interwoven with the spirit of the Roaring Twenties.
Lollipop is a delightful example of 1920s musical comedy.
