I had no interest in even seeing this show because I'd figured I wouldn't be interested in some "old" music out of the '20's and '30's. I'd decided to go just to hook up with a couple of relatives and figured I'd probably be bored (I'm being honest here, okay?). But no way!! The singing, history lessons, humor, and impersonations were absolutely wonderful. Every seat in the joint was spoken for. I'd recommend you go. There was one part I didn't understand, though. At the end when the lights were fading, "Miss Hunter" was doing these jerking like motions. Maybe that depicted her dying? Sad -- especially when most of the show was so upbeat. The other three people I was really enjoyed this show. These two ladies are AWESOME! I saw the March 2, matinee.
