SUMMARY:America's Sweethearts
DESCRIPTION:America has loved the swinging sounds of female close-harmony groups even before The Andrews Sisters hit the airwaves with “Bei Mir Bist Du Schön” in 1937\, but audiences will hear those great vintage songs with fresh ears when AMERICA’S SWEETHEARTS take the stage in their fresh and vibrant show! These New York City-based ladies have performed across the USA at iconic spaces honoring our veterans (the Intrepid Air and Space Museum\, the WASP Museum) as well as large theatres and intimate cabaret venues\, getting crowds tapping their feet to hits like “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy” as they celebrate history through their crystal-clear harmony and colorful costumes. With selections from the Great American Songbook\, classic Broadway\, pop tunes from the 1950s\, and jazz\, AMERICA’S SWEETHEARTS charm audiences of all ages while navigating their way through a variety of trios\, duets\, and solo features… all with a slice of old-fashioned fun!

SUMMARY:Into the Woods Jr.
DESCRIPTION:Be careful what you wish for\, as Stephen Sondheim’s and James Lapine’s cockeyed fairytale comes to life in this adaptation of their groundbreaking\, Tony Award-winning musical.  Into the Woods JR. features all of your favorite characters — Cinderella\, Little Red Riding Hood\, Jack (and his beanstalk) and the Witch — in this lyrically rich retelling of classic Brothers Grimm fables. \nThe musical centers on a baker and his wife\, who wish to have a child; Cinderella\, who wishes to attend the King’s festival; and Jack\, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a witch’s curse\, the two set off on a journey to break the curse\, and wind up changed forever. \nWith unforgettable roles\, minimal dancing and no chorus\, Into the Woods JR. showcases a medium-sized ensemble of talented singers and actors. The sophisticated score has been adapted to make it more accessible to young performers.
