September 1-11, “The Andrews Brothers” (CRT)
Cortland Repertory Theatre, Little York NY. Featuring legendary Andrews Sisters songs, this hysterical revue begins overseas, with three male stagehands helping gorgeous pin-up girl Peggy Jones rehearse for a USO show. When the quartet hears that the headlining Andrews Sisters can’t perform - Laverne has chicken pox - they decide that the show must go on! Indeed it does when Lawrence, Max and Patrick Andrews don dresses, heels and wigs to create a USO show like never before. The bewigged boys perform an entire generation of music, including “Slow Boat to China”, “Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree” and “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy”. Humor, harmonies and hijinks highlight this wonderful salute-with-a-twist to the heroes of World War II! For more information and ticket sales, visit www.cortlandrep.org.
