ACCLAIM FOR PROHIBITION

“A Bootlegger’s Delight!”

“Guest vocalists Madison Claire Parks, Bronson Norris Murphy and Myra Maud played the roles of ingénue, dapper young man and cabaret star in the modest story line threaded through the evening’s music. Murphy nailed the period crooner style, sounding much of the time like he was singing through a tube radio. As the cabaret star, Maud, born in Paris herself, invested ‘La Vie en Rose’ and a solo version of ‘Bei Mir Bist du Schön’ with big personality as well as a commanding voice.”

– Jim Higgins, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

CONCERT OVERVIEW

Prohibition: The Music of Moulin Rouge, Boardwalk Empire and More! Imagine time-traveling through the dark cabarets and speakeasies of New York, Paris, Berlin, London, Chicago, and Atlantic City, reliving the 1920s in all its decadence… Prohibition, Gangsters, Ingenues, and Intrigue. Accompanied by vintage imagery, Prohibition takes you on a journey from Rudy Vallée and Josephine Baker to Kurt Weill and Marlene Dietrich, featuring the top hits of the decade authentically arranged for orchestra by Grammy-winner Jeff Tyzik and performed by three stunning vocalists.

Broadway actor and choreographer Tyler Hanes joined the creative team to provide choreography and stage direction. Prohibition is a co-production of Schirmer Theatrical, LLC, and Greenberg Artists.
