GoodTime, the better side of Charley, is the type of guy who'll work for the side that gives him the most $$ with attitude, "win if you can, lose if you must, but always cheat".
In a sense, GoodTime Charley personifies the modern day arrogant "Wall Street Stock Broker" who wears a brown rain coat, referring to the women he's suckered in as "broads".
GoodTime says, "the name within itself is deceiving." If GoodTime was a female, she'd use a mixture of deceptive shenanigans, only a woman could use to play out her mission.

 Goodtime Charley
Joan of Arc (Juliette Morgan, right) is determined to go into battle, despite her valet's (Sean Sharp) attempts to dissuade her, in the 1975 Tony Award-nominated musical GOODTIME CHARLEY, by Larry Grossman and Hal Hackaday, presented in concert version by 42nd St. Moon.
Putting a comic spin on history, GOODTIME CHARLEY re-tells the story of Joan of Arc and the Dauphin of France, in which the Dauphin is presented as a hedonistic young man more interested in having a good time than he is in succeeding to the French throne.
Composed by Larry Grossman, with lyrics by Hal Hackady, GOODTIME CHARLEY opened on Broadway starring Joel Grey as the Dauphin and Ann Reinking, as Joan of Arc.

As for Chancy, he should be computercentric, and the voice for Amber should be someone with a distinctive sound that could add credibility to the storyline.
To that end, Rob brought in a couple of actors and several female VO narrators, all displayed the demeanors tinged with looks needed for the part, which Rob thought might lend themselves to the air of a Humphrey Bogart for the GoodTime Charley role.
Troy says the computer is so vital to the story because only youth or Chancy is foolish enough to take a risk and change, to live impulsively and follow his or her heart at the expense of all reason or common sense.

 Playbill Features: Ken Mandelbaum's MUSICALS ON DISC: Three Reissues From RCA Victor
But Charley was not without its pleasures, including acclaimed Rouben Ter-Arutunian sets (in the style of Maxfield Parrish), good work from the stars (it was the most demanding vocal workout of Reinking's career), and an often pleasant score, helped along by Jonathan Tunick's grand orchestrations.
Still, this is a good time to reissue the Charley album, as it preserves the first meeting of Chicago co-stars Grey and Reinking (you will note that Reinking's voice has changed over the years more than Grey's).
A year after Charley, Broadway's greatest composer, Richard Rodgers, had a substantial failure with a show that was, like Charley, a less than wonderful idea.

GOODTIME CHARLEY is an enchanting musical which recounts the saga of Joan of Arc from the perspective of the Dauphin.
Joel Grey and Ann Reinking offer galvanising performances (I agree with those who have said this is Reinking's most accomplished singing role).
They almost pulled it off - if you don't mind hearing King Charles singing that he justs want to be called Goodtime Charley or the singing and dancing as Joan burns at the stake.

She made the move from the chorus to featured roles with her award-winning turn in "Over Here!" (1974), a stage musical featuring the Andrews Sisters.
She garnered her first Tony Award nomination for her portrayal of Joan of Arc to Joel Grey's Dauphin in the unsuccessful musical "Goodtime Charley" in 1975.
The following year, she stepped into Donna McKechnie's red dress as Cassie, who longs to return to her first love, in Michael Bennett's "A Chorus Line." In 1977, Reinking once again was tapped as a replacement, this time for veteran star (and Fosse's wife) Gwen Verdon as Roxie Hart in "Chicago."
