 The Show

Created by artistic director and choreographer Marilyn Klaus, Cocktail Hour: The Show melds the glamour of Hollywood’s Golden Age with a sleek, state-of-the-art sensibility. Elegance, electricity, and all-American energy combine in a series of delightful dancing drinks. It’s entertainment for the whole family. 

 Program highlights include

• “Hot Toddy” — Are these cats on the level or on the lam? Mayhem reigns supreme in this red-hot rollick through the Roaring Twenties.

• “Manhattan” — After a big-city evening, a socialite steps out with her dearest companion. As they  stroll past each lamppost on Park Avenue, a jazz trumpet echoes the mood of the changing skyline. 

• “Roy Rogers” — Fellas, beware! With a crack of the whip, this rodeo gal corrals her man. America’s Wild West is the backdrop for this amorous chase.
