Members Who Went Said:
Of course the songs were great, but the cast was uneven...two of the women were absolutely terrific and would stop the show on any stage on Broadway. Sadly, the other one was just not up to standard or the music. Of the three males, only one was at the professional level of performance. The other two men gave credible though not memorable performances.
Elliot Simon Active in community theater & choirs A revue chock full of Yip Harburg lyrics (with multiple composers) that warmed my heart, made me think, and tickled my funnybone. Fine cast, wonderful accompaniment, and superlative direction.
