Wartime Radio Revue
Wartime Radio Revue - Friday, November 10, 2017 8 PM
“BROADCASTING LIVE, all across America, to all the ships at sea and to all our boys in uniform stationed abroad, this is WARTIME RADIO REVUE!” So begins the evening with Pete Jacobs and his 16-piece big band. Interspersing the greatest hits of the thirties and forties with late-breaking news stories from the war years with 1940’s-style radio commercials and commentary, this band will take you through a time machine back to a World War II USO show. Three “Andrews Sisters” style female vocalists, a hot, driving rhythm section and an eight-piece horn section all dressed in “armed-forces” uniforms, adds up to an authentic evening of hit music and nostalgia. Coming to LPAC on the eve of Veteran’s Day – this show is perfect not only for veterans, but those longing for those days of “radio style” entertainment and the golden era of “swing”.
