“Many influences shine through in the play: marches, the Caribbean, early jazz, gospel, James Brown… You name it, it’s in there. And it’s music that gets in you.” – DPAC News
“get amped up for every bwaat, oomp-oomp, squeal, wah-wah and stomp-the-yard drum line they’ll bring…” – Debartolo Center
Wonderful music……everyone was on their feet. Makes you feel like you’re in New Orleans.
