Product Description

Professor Julius Kelp is a dull geek with a bright idea. Privately experimenting in his laboratory to find the cure for his social failures, he creates a potion that transforms him into a smooth talking, party animal named Buddy Love.



Buddy is everything that Julius always dreamed of being and gets the girl that he always dreamed of dating, Stella.



The only problem is that the potion doesn't last very long. Will the school find out his secret and will Stella stick around even after Love has left the building?

"I was born with show business in my blood and working on Broadway gets it coursing through my veins like no other place can. Marvin and Rupert have given one of my favorite and most enduring films THE NUTTY PROFESSOR a hilarious and gorgeous adaptation for Broadway and I could not be happier. Does this story sing and dance? You bet it does." said Jerry Lewis.
