SYNOPSIS

Just in time for Valentine's Day, this razzle-dazle, tap dancing spectacular is filled with plot twists, mistaken identities, and a dreamy "boy meets girl" love story.  With music and lyrics by George and Ira Gershwin, the show features such classic tunes as "Embraceable You," "I Got Rhythm," and "Somewone to Watch Over Me."
