Swingtime Canteen at Ivoryton Playhouse

The swingingest canteen show of them all! City Theater in Biddeford invites you to step back in time. Imagine it’s 1944, in the old city of London during World War II. You are a soldier, perhaps preparing to go to war for the first time, perhaps on leave from long months of hard battles in Europe. Tonight, however, you are in for a treat; MGM star Marian Ames, along with her niece Katie, and fellow performers Jo, Lilly and Topeka, are going to be putting on a rip-roaring canteen show for you. This toe-tapping performance will feature some of the best music of the era, including Sing Sing Sing, Sentimental Journey, a 5-part harmony, a cappella version of Apple Blossom Time and many more that will have you ready to dance with your favorite pin-up girl.
