Artbeat presents IN THE MOOD, a 1940's big band, swing dance musical featuring the music that moved the nation's spirit, at the Fitzgerald Theater on Sunday, November 8th at 5:00 p.m. With a big band orchestra, singers and dancers, IN THE MOOD presents a retro 1940s musical. Experience the music that moved a nation's spirit and helped win a war. This was the last time when all of America was listening and dancing to the same kind of music.
Much more than a concert, IN THE MOOD takes a retro look at the life and time of America’s greatest generation, a generation that was listening and dancing to the same kind of music. With music and dance performed to up-tempo big band rhythms and mellow intimate ballads, a mood was set to inspire a future filled with hope, promise and prosperity. This was a time like no other in our Nation’s history, a time when music moved the Nation’s spirit. Come experience the swing, rhythm, jazzy, brassy, sentimental and romantic music of this important time. The revue features a company of 24 including the In the Mood Singers and Dancers with the sensational String of Pearls big band orchestra with arrangements, costumes and choreography as authentic as it gets.
