Photo Flash: PGA Jams with I WILL SURVIVE: SOUNDTRACKS OF THE 7O'S

When award-winning vocalist Mimi J. sought to develop a show about the women of soul who influenced her, she immediately turned to her good friend, Carbonell Award-nominated director/choreographer Kevin Black. They tossed around a number of ideas, but they kept coming back to the music of the 70s - music they both love. Together they came up with the concept, a title, and the song choices for what was then called On the Radio: Sounds of the 70s. The show opened at Stage Door Theatre in Margate in June 2014 to rave reviews.

What had evolved was an evening of unforgettable songs from an unforgettable decade of music produced by an array of artists from ABBA to Carly Simon, to Gladys Knight, John Lennon, and ZZ Top. Now called I Will Survive - The Soundtracks of the 70s, the show is a rousing trip down memory lane - back to the time of bell bottoms, mood rings, smiley faces, and memorable music. Among the songs that will be featured in the show are "Close to You", "Car Wash", "Dancing Queen", "Let it Be", "Nobody Does It Better", "Proud Mary", "Midnight Train to Georgia", "Hopelessly Devoted", and "I Will Survive".

I Will Survive will run from October 18 to November 19 at The PGA Arts Center in Palm Beach Gardens. The theatre is located at 4076 PGA Boulevard in Palm Beach Gardens (33410).
