Goodbye gray skies, hello blue! Happy days are here again with Richie, Potsie, Ralph Malph and the unforgettable “king of cool” Arthur “The Fonz” Fonzarelli. Based on the hit Paramount Pictures television series, Happy Days, A New Musical reintroduces one of America’s best loved families, the Cunninghams — yes, Howard, Marion and Joanie are here too — to a whole new generation of kids and parents.
The famed drive-in malt shop and number one hangout, Arnold’s, is in danger of demolition. So the gang teams up to save it with a dance contest and a TV-worthy wrestling match. Even Pinky Tuscadero, Fonzie’s childhood sweetheart, returns to help and — lo and behold! — they rekindle their old flame.

ARTHUR “THE FONZ” FONZARELLI – The King of Cool. Funny and loaded with charisma. Older than the other kids.

RICHIE CUNNINGHAM – High School student, Fonzie’s best friend. All-American, honest and reliable.

HOWARD CUNNINGHAM – Richie’s dad, the quintessential Midwestern head of household. A man in his 40s who is also in the local order of Leopards.

CHARLES “CHACHI” ARCOLA – Fonzie’s cousin who tries to be just like him. Probably 15-16 and he likes Joanie. Plays with a yo-yo.

PINKY TUSCADERO – Fonzie’s love interest, confident, tough.

MARION CUNNINGHAM – Richie’s mom, warm, naive and wise. She is in her 40’s.

LORI BETH ALLEN – Sweet, lovely, “girl next door” type. Richie’s girlfriend.

RALPH MALPH – High school buddy of Richie’s. He’s the class clown.

WARREN “POTSIE” WEBBER – Richie’s high school buddy, not very cool but tries hard to be.

LEOPARD MAC GATES/ENSEMBLE – Howard’s Leopard Lodge brother.

JUMPY MALACHI/ENSEMBLE – Other one-half of the Malachi Brothers, filled with nervous energy, greaser type, in his 20s. As Jumpy, he does show fancy wrestling moves.
