Favoriting Acid Jazz Hands with Bronwyn Bishop: Playlist from December 6, 2019 Favoriting

Bronwyn Bishop's avatar View Bronwyn Bishop's profile Favoriting

Musical theater from off the beaten path. Obscure and unusual show tunes from within the canon and without, flops, failures, and the newest works from up-and-coming artists—plus tried-and-true hits. Also, occasional appearances from songs that are not show tunes (but only if they go really well with show tunes).

Thinking about seeing this musical and thinking of what it might include and I started to tear up.
Avatar 🎭 Swag For Life Member 7:20pm
WR:

With the orchestra into to Uke Ike makes it likely this is from the 1929 movie The Hollywood Revue of 1929. Joan Crawford's song and dance number is just one of many highlights.
