Nine of the biggest movie money-makers of the Great Depression are featured in this “trip back in time” with Fred & Ginger. Sit back and enjoy the sounds of yesterday. Join acclaimed Broadway dancers, singers and the Buffalo Philarmonic Orchestra under the direction of Paul Ferington for this Tribute to Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. Relive the memories of this couple’s fresh routines and easygoing air that became a trademark of their tap solos and ballroom numbers. Guest artists are Jodi Benson and Doug LaBrecque.
Soprano Jodi Benson is best known for her performance as the voice of Ariel in Disneyis Academy Award winning film The Little Mermaid. Doug LaBrecque, baritone, has thrilled theatre audiences as The Phantom and Raoul in the Harold Prince production of The Phantom of the Opera and has starred on Broadway as Ravenal in the Hal Prince revival of Showboat.
