Subways Are for Sleeping
Subways Are for Sleeping is a musical Produced by David Merrick with a book and lyrics by Betty Comden and Adolph Green and music by Jule Styne. The original Broadway production played in 1961-62.

Love, who slept on subway trains throughout the 1950s and encountered many unique individuals.
