Everything's Coming Up Roses: the Music of Julie Styne
Jule Styne wrote the music for some of the best shows in Broadway's
history: "Gypsy", "Funny Girl", "Bells Are Ringing" and "Gentlemen
Prefer Blondes" to name just a few. He also wrote the music for such
popular songs as "Time After TIme", "I Don't Want To Walk Without You",
"It's Been A Long, Long Time (Kiss Me Once and Kiss Me Twice...)" and
countless others. He was one of the most colorful guys in the history
of song writing; a real Damon Runyon character right out of "Guys and
Dolls". 2005 is the year of his centennial and to celebrate, KT
Sullivan and Mark Nadler have put together a new show of his music and stories
about his life.
This show is romantic, tuneful and most of all, it is lots and lots of
fun.
