I LOVE A PIANO
Irving Berlin show
Monday March 3, 2008 7:30 p.m.
at the Marina
Civic Center
I
Love a Piano is a nostalgic musical journey with spanning seven decades of
American history as seen through the eyes of Irving Berlin – a man who
Jerome Kern described by saying "Irving Berlin has no place in American
music...He is American Music!"
The show tracks the life of a piano with one sour key through four
generations of singers and dancers who have performed with and around it.
With 6 actors and over 60 of Berlin’s enduring and popular favorites, this
spectacular new show captures the spirit of America from the Ragtime
rhythms of the early 20th century through the swinging sophistication of
the 1920s and 30s. From the sentimental songs that inspired a nation
during two World Wars to the innocent optimism of the 1950’s. Timeless
classics, such as “White Christmas,” “God Bless America,” “Puttin’ On The
Ritz,” and “There’s No
Business Like Show Business”, do more than define the music of a
generation, they define the music of our country. Variety raves,-
"The strutting, cajoling, embracing songs are newly revealed ... rousing
and toe tapping!" With more than 1,500 songs and 21 musical scores
credited to his name, I Love a Piano will remind you that everyone is a
fan of Irving Berlin!
