CURTAIN UP: This week, we spotlight the musical No Strings. The show has a score by Richard Rodgers, the only show where he supplied both music and lyrics. It was his first show after the death of his long-time collaborator, Oscar Hammerstein II. The musical, which starred Richard Kiley and Diahann Carroll, opened on March 15, 1962 and ran for 580 performances.
