The Gershwin musical is an all singing, all dancing showcase, celebrating the music and lyrics of George and Ira Gershwin, considered one of the most successful songwriting teams in the history of popular music.  The show is divided in five mini-musicals, based on real events that were happening in the time and in the personal lives of the brothers.  First the audience is taken to 1924 New York City with a slapstick and vaudeville homage to comedic silent movie stars of the 1920s.  The voyage continues to 1938 Paris and the effects of World War II.  It continues on to Hollywood circa 1948, followed by the City of New Orleans in 1959 and finally setting in modern time.  Songs include ’S Wonderful!", “Looking for a Boy”, “Yankee Doodle Rhythm”, “You’ve Got What Gets Me”, “Isn’t it a Pity”, “Swanee”, “Rhapsody in Blue”, “Somebody from Somewhere”, “Somebody Loves Me”, “Fascinating Rhythm”, “Strike Up The Band”, “Let’s Call The Whole Thing Off”, “Love is Here to Stay”, “An American in Paris” (a ballet), “I’ll Build a Stairway to Paradise”, “Shall We Dance”, “My One and Only”, “Nice Work if You Can Get It”, “The Man I Love”, “Summertime”, “Oh, Lady Be Good”, “Love is Sweeping the Country”, “I’ve Got Rhythm”, “I’ve Got a Crush On You”, “Funny Face”, “Boy What Love Has Done to Me”, “Someone to Watch Over Me”, “Of Thee I Sing” and many more.
