REVIEW: #1 Hits of the 60's - I want a 60s Christmas!

I'm going to tell you right off that this is a Rave Review.
We saw #1 Hits of the 60s last year and it was such an enjoyable experience for us that we had to see it again this year. You can bet that we will see it next year, too.
The 1960s were very special years for me and my husband...we grew up in the 60s. All the songs that we hoped to hear were performed plus some unexpected 60s songs that we had forgotten were also our faves way back when. The instrumentals by the terrific 8 piece Band, The 60's Hitmen, were alone worth the price of admission.
This show is more than a musicial tribute show. It really is Musical Theater at it's best.
Each of the 8 member cast of performers has a great voice, but together their voices are rich and powerful. I loved the sets when the entire cast was singing and dancing those big production numbers - Awesome!

"Scrooge gets his Groove" was excellent. The blending of Charles Dickens' original words from "A Christmas Carol" with the lingo of the 1960s was inspired! The contrast of speech, worked so well with the fab costumes and brilliant song choices. Whoever brought this together was a genius.
"Scrooge" was played by an extremely talented Singer/Dancer/Actor. He brought Scrooge to life with style and grace. That guy really has the "moves".

I want to be fair and I have been searching my mind for anything negative...couldn't find anything, so I asked my husband and he said, "That show was alot better than the 50s Show we saw during afternoon."
I had even recommended #1 Hits of the 60s to my Boss the week before. She come back thanking me and saying she loved the show. So I feel confident recommending #1 Hits of the 60s to anyone.

Sounds like a good show! I've neer seen that show, maybe I will on my next trip. I've seen both of the 50's show and the 70's show. So I guess it's time for me to see the 60's show. Thanks for the reveiw!

Hi Suse! Thanks for the awesome review and recommendation of our show.
We had a lot of fun putting the Christmas Show together this year. It was such a fun concept and so much fun to perform. Makes me look forward to next Christmas Season. Scrooge will find his Groove once again and thanks to so many of you on the forum, more and more people will find #1 Hits Of The 60's. We appreciate each and everyone of you!
Sincerely,
RC

Rather it is the Christmas show or the regular show, this is not one show you should miss. Everyone in the show is very talented and seems to have a lot of fun with the show. If any of them were having a bad day you would not be able to tell it. They put 100% into the show. I've seen the show 3 times and each time it seems to be better then the last. This is one show that is on the top of my list that I have to see each year.
