NEW YORK—If you have not had the opportunity to learn more about James Cagney, the multitalented actor/singer/dancer, go to the Westside Theatre and see Robert Creighton, an Outer Critics award winner for Best Actor in an Off Broadway Musical. This is your chance.

The short, stocky, and very determined Irish-born New Yorker is re-invented in “Cagney: The Musical” by Robert Creighton at the Westside Theatre. Fortunately, in addition to singing, dancing, and tapping a mean streak, Creighton bears a striking physical resemblance to Cagney.

Bruce Sabath is fabulous as Jack Warner, the Hollywood executive. (Carol Rosegg)
