By Guys And Dolls Cast. By Frank Loesser. Arranged by John Ivor Holland. 20th Century,Broadway,Film/TV,Musical/Show,Pop,Standards. 74 pages. John Ivor Holland #977871. Published by John Ivor Holland (A0.1394389)."Sit Down, You're Rockin' the Boat" is a song written by Frank Loesser and introduced in the Broadway musical, 'Guys and Dolls', which opened at the 46th Street Theatre on November 24, 1950. In the context of the show, gambler Nicely-Nicely Johnson invents a dream about being saved from hell in order to bring together the members of the prayer meeting. It was originally performed on stage by Stubby Kaye who later reprised his role as Nicely-Nicely Johnson in the 1953 London production, as well as the 1955 film version. In popular culture, the song was performed in the pilot episode of the show 'Glee' in 2009, and then redone in the season 3 finale, "Goodbye" as well as making appearances on various TV shows and films. When performed on-stage, it's usual that this is the song that gets multiple encores, so get ready to potentially play it several times in a concert!
