Three wide-eyed strangers, with empty pockets and big
dreams, arrive in The Big Apple from Detroit, Memphis and Philly
with one goal in mind – to sing at the world famous Apollo
Theater. Teaming up and blending the musical sounds of their hometowns,
they form a brotherhood spanning more than a decade. This rags to
riches celebration of the American Dream, featuring Motown and R&B
classics including “Chain Gang,” “Sitting on the
Dock of the Bay” and “Lonely Teardrop,” triumphantly
returns to its own “hometown” after more than a decade
of successful productions around the country.
“You’d have to be stone cold dead
not to find yourself tapping your feet and ‘putting your
hands together . . . a fun, rousing evening." -Backstage

Gene Kelly, Donald O’Connor, Sammy Davis, Jr., Bobby Darin
and Anthony Newley. Peterson sings and dances his way through 25
memorable moments made famous by these legends of the silver screen.
“Peterson is a phenomenon. He devours
the stage. He vamps, slithers and burns energy like a comet plummeting
to earth." -The Detroit News

Three phenomenal actors, armed with an outrageous assortment
of outerwear and props, cram the Bard’s entire canon of plays
(and sonnets), into 90 minutes of high-speed, over-the-top hilarity!
The whole family will love this endearingly irreverent and lightning-paced
romp through the greatest plays of all time.
