Smokey Joe's Cafe

Found a Broadway show called Smokey Joe's Cafe advertised online and ordered it. It is one of the most entertaining videos I have ever seen and is one of the few Broadway shows filmed in its entirety. It is a fast paced video since they sing 39 songs in 102 minutes so there are no slow places. There is no plot to get bogged down in....just great music by Lieber and Stoller who wrote so many hit songs for Elvis. As you watch the show you will notice just how many songs you recognize but didn't know they wrote them.All the performers do a great job. This is the final show of the run so there is a mixture of original cast and those who were added later. There are really too many stars to name them all but to me the one that stands out the most is DeLee Lively who doesn't sing much but dances very well. Some of the highlights are when she dances the shimmy in Teach Me How To Shimmy...when Victor Trent Cook sings Searchin' a very comedic performance...B.J. Crosby singing the reprise of Fools Fall in Love toward end of show and Victor Trent Cook singing
I Who Have Nothing which had the audience standing when he finished singing it.Have watched it over and over and enjoy it just as much each time. It is truly a performance you will never forget.
