...classic musicals of the American theater (the film doesn't begin to do it justice). The small stage might cramp the dances, but nothing can keep down Frank Burrows' beautiful score, ranging from the delicious "Sit Down, You're Rocking the Boat" to the exquisite "I'll Know."

For those of you who are into Balkan-American Folk Music (fees up, I know you're out there somewhere) Laduvane willbe coming to Passim on Nov. 1. And on Nov. 5, Jonathan Swift...
Remember "Temptation Eyes?" Well, the Grass Roots are back in town, playing Lucifer from Oct. 23 through Nov. 5. Why they're playing at a disco I'll never figure out. The last time they were heard from, disco hadn't even been invented...
