The director warned us it was the first preview but there was no need. What a delightful show! My friend was in a production decades ago and if not for him I wouldn't have tried to see this little gem. Old fashioned for sure...but how can you not light up with all that tap dancing? Some of the most perfect casting I've ever seen too! Well done yet again, NCTC!

Not perfict. Still ironing out some bugs, but worth seeijng. One of the better shows I've seen in a while. One singer is a little weak but the rest of the cast was exceptional. Oh, and the one with the weak voice still can act. Go to this one you'll get your moneys worth.

The show was a good attempt and the actors did a good job. The dancing was good and the songs were fun. More singers and dancers would have helped! But over all, a very fun show!

Description

Directed by F. Allen Sawyer
Musical Direction by G. Scott Lacy
Choreography by Bobby Bryce
Starring John Cavellini, Leanne Borghesi, Christopher Nelson, Kate Paul, Drew Todd and Rena Wilson.

A group of performers are preparing for their upcoming show, Dames At Sea. The cast includes the disgruntled manager, Hennesy; the new chorus girl, Ruby; and the diva, Mona. This 1966 off-Broadway musical hit takes an irreverent look at the Hollywood musicals of the 1930s.

The tale of a sweet small-town girl who arrives in New York with plans to make it big on Broadway, Dames at Sea charms and delights with comedy, love songs, rollicking tap numbers, and everything between. This show promises to be the perfect winter season confection!
