I'm back from a successful run at the Coconut Grove Playhouse. Below you can read what they said about the show as well as some reviews that we received while in Florida.

Hoagy: The Hoagy Carmichael Musical

by Bruce Dettman and William C. Trichon
November 2 - November 21, 2004

At once a loving tribute and a grand entertainment, HOAGY is a jazzy and sensual celebration of Hoagy Carmichael, one of the greatest American songwriters that ever lived and a true legend of popular music. His classic songs are countless, including "Georgia On My Mind," "Rockin' Chair," "Lazy River," "In the Cool, Cool, Cool of the Evening," "Skylark," "Heart and Soul," and perhaps most memorably, "Stardust," the most recorded song of the 20th century. HOAGY shines the spotlight on these and many more memorable songs. And in the tradition of Jolson and Company, HOAGY chronicles the life and times of its title character, with a singer/actor giving a tour de force performance as Hoagy Carmichael, supported by other singers, dancers and an on-stage band.
