Revenge with Music is a musical comedy with book and lyrics by Howard Dietz and music by Arthur Schwartz. The music was orchestrated by Robert Russell Bennett.

Produced by Arch Selwyn and Harold B. Franklin, the Broadway production, opened on November 28, 1934 at the New Amsterdam Theatre for a total of 158 performances. The cast starred Charles Winninger, Libby Holman and Georges Metaxa.

Although this show was considered a failure, it included two hit songs “You and the Night and the Music” and “If There Is Someone Lovelier Than You.” The former was used again in "The Band Wagon."
