Ok, I dusted off some remaining brain cells. I played the first national tour, (revival?). There is a big trumpet solo in the overture. You hold out a top space G all by yourself until it gets the audiences' attention. Then you play a short written out playable cadenza that leads to a trumpet solo of a ballad for two choruses.
There was a sustained high F at the end of a swing tune. A rip stortin' ending, nothing to worry about. A few awkward Ebs. No pic back then.
Fun show. Very playable with legendary Gershwin tunes.
Cheers,
