CURTAIN UP: This week, we celebrate Stop the World – I Want to Get Off, which opened 62 years ago this week on Oct. 3, 1962 and ran for 555 performances. The show starred Anthony Newley who, along with Leslie Bricusse, wrote the book and score.
In 1966 Warner Bros. released a film adaptation of the play. In 1996, a film version was produced for TV, made for the A&E Network.
