 MY REVIEW: You MUST come to see this production.. if you love show tunes, fabulous voices and getting to SEE the orchestra live and ON STAGE, do NOT miss this show! This is Broadway Palm's 168th production.

It's beautiful, funny in places, seriously romantic and the voices are just like hot fudge coursing all over your ear drums.. such a delight.

You WILL remember Sami Douherty from other performances, this time she is also the Dance Captain. Sami's a local actress growing up in Cape Coral and is a graduate of FSU School of Theater. She's been in about EVERY show that's come into fruition .. I love watching her.

The second Jacob Waid opens his mouth to sing, you know he's not been practicing in front of his mirror with a hair brush as a mic.. He has an extensive background in opera, performing the leading roles in many opras that I can't pronounce and do them justice, but just know he was in them and ROCKED!

Kate Marshall has been in Prather Productions before and was Fiona in SHREK (I adored that show!)

A couple of the other performers were on the Prather stage for the first time.. Michael Santora, Jenna Leigh Zito,Sarah Mossman (learn more about her from her website! Www.sarahmossman.com

And last but not least, Rachel Haber, and Troy Bruchwalski, back again!

I'll mention it again: there is not ONE single voice that is LESS THAN in the entire ensemble. We thrilled at the ranges, the incredible vocal arrangements, the moves, the orchestra.. EVEN LOREN STRICKLAND SANG and usually we don't even get to SEE him, let alone hear him warble as well!! I LOVED it ALL!!!!!!! wowsers! Amazing show.. go see it!!

And DO NOT miss the shows coming up.. scroll to bottom of the page to see what fun you REALLY are in for in the coming season!!
