Thread Name: I have a musical opening this week
Subject: I have a musical opening this week
Just wanted to say I have a musical review opening this Thursday. We have a premier Thursday with dinner theater Friday and Saturday nights. Hope to raise a few thousand dollars for my theater group. It is a do-wop show of 1960 vintage music, Lots of saddle oxfords, blask satin jackets, cardigan letter sweaters, goofy choreography and pretty decent 4 part harmonies, along with a killer girls' trio doing One Fine day and Will you Still Love me TOmorrow. We will be performing a lot of nice 60s songs like Mack the Knife, In the Still of the Night, Come go with me, Unchained Melody etc along with the obligatory BEEP BEEP and Running Bear.

My group has been inactive for 2 1/2 years as our baritone is recovering from cancer. We seem to be back in the groove though now, and have a good band backing us. Please send your good thoughts my way as this has been a great challenge to get ready for the stage. I wrote it, and am directing it, as well as singing bass, so it is a bit stressful for me as I have not been able to get far enough away from the work to actually see it on stage. Hopefully it will fly! jimmyt
