FIVE GUYS NAMED MOE is a delightfully frothy concoction that takes its simple thread of a story and then lovingly drapes it in a wonderful collection of Jordan's finest songs. The Black Rep is currently presenting a dazzling and upbeat production (March 24 - April 25, 2010) that's immensely entertaining.
