Louis Jordan

Skylight Music Theatre Presents: Five Guys Named Moe

January 30, 2019 By MKE Community Journal Leave a Comment

A musical by Clarke Peters Featuring Louis Jordan’s Greatest Hits
Originally Produced at the Theatre Royal Stratford East

This joyful, jazzy tribute to Louis Jordan, the 1940s rhythm-and-blues singer, songwriter and band leader, is an unstoppable party of a show. After our hero’s girlfriend leaves him, he turns his life around by listening to the megawatt singing and dancing energy of five guys named Moe performing favorites like Saturday Night Fish Fry and Choo Choo Ch’Boogie. Ages 11 and up.
