Reviews

Adding to the energy, on stage for the duration of the show, are Musical Director, Ben Murray, and Lucas D Lynch on keyboards, and Peter Lavrencic on drums. The music is great and you’ll swear you have heard an orchestra backing the action. They are right at home creating the NYC club atmosphere too.

Kudos to musical director Ben Murray, choreographer Tess Hill, and the crew for fitting the many facets together in this frolic. It’s fabulous.
