Summer Stages: Summer Picks in Connecticut
by Lauren Yarger - Jun 16, 2014
Connecticut's theater season heats up during the summer with regular and summer series offerings. Some of the top picks I am looking forward to:
Ivoryton Playhouse to Present FINGERS & TOES, 6/4-22
by Tyler Peterson - May 14, 2014
A 1930's tap dance spectacular that burst on to the New York Stage in 2010 as part of the New York Musical Theatre Festival, Fingers & Toes opens the summer season at the Ivoryton Playhouse. A brand new work from Logan Medland, this mighty, mini musical combines snappy dialogue, catchy tunes and some of the fanciest dancing you'll see this year - high-energy tap routines that evoke the magic of the Fred Astaire - Ginger Rogers era. A deliriously delightful and genuinely funny love-letter to the old-fashioned backstage musical.
