The cast was made up of approximately 30+ extremely talented people. There were the young and the older. The child and the youth. The short and the tall.
And lots of singing and dancing and lively choreography! (The choreography was not simple---looked especially challenging!!)
Classical show tunes came from Les Miserables, from Sound of Music, from Gigi, South Pacific and any number of other familiar and not so familiar musicals, too numerous to remember.
An all male ensemble sang "There Is Nothing Like a Dame". This number was especially funny with a motley crew of rugged (ragged) sailors singing about the "girls" and all their shapely qualities.
Judie Murphy sang "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" complete with a real live Toto puppy who behaved perfectly from the first note to the last. The puppy belongs to the local veterinarian so was perfectly trained.
Accompaniment was by the gifted Paulette Fry and Sue Bonne, with additional sound effects added via a synthesizer.
I could go on and on talking about how much I enjoyed it. I cannot believe how much talent is concentrated in that one choir group (plus a few extras.)
And I simply have no words for how much I love these people!!
