We definitely mix eras in the show. The show is anchored by the performances of a few surfing stories taken from 50's and 60's comic books and TV shows read in a radio-show style with music and live sound effects and with art projected behind the actors that relates to each story. In between the stories, we have a few musical acts and more performances. An MC announces the in-between bits which are tiki-themed, including an audience participation performance of "Quiet Village", readings from island-themed record albums (late 50's) and bits from the Brady Bunch Hawaii episodes. Plus a few more things. It all happens inside the WHERE Gallery in LA at Sunset and Griffith Park Blvd. I hope this helps. Obviously, I'm biased, but it should be a fun show. Thanks for asking about it. We've been performing this kind of thing for a long time, from Chicago to LA, with each show themed differently. This is our first surf/tiki theme. And, yes, I get up early and am a morning person, prone to bubbly exclamation points. My wife hates it. |
