Synopsis: 1930s New York swings to life in this high-octane, tap dancing musical! Bachelor Bobby Child begrudgingly works at the family bank while he plugs away at his theatre career, but after he's forced to foreclose on a property in the middle of nowhere, Bobby finds that his love of theatre and the love of his life are waiting for him in the most unlikely of places. In order to get both, he'll have to pull a few tricks (and fake moustaches) from his theatrical back pocket! Between the hijinx and hilarity, you'll be humming along to famous songs like I Got Rhythm and Nice Work if You Can Get It.

Callbacks June 29-30th, 2014.
