Overview
Synopsis
As Thousands Cheer is a hilarious musical review with each scene preceded by an appropriate newspaper headline. Sketches include the Hoovers leaving the White House with the President giving his cabinet a Bronx cheer; John D. Rockefeller refusing to accept Radio City as a birthday gift; commercials interrupting the singing during a Metropolitan Opera broadcast; a hotel staff falling under the influence of Noël Coward; and a Supreme Court decision that says musicals cannot end with reprises.
