Roger is a professional pianist, singer and raconteur. He has a wealth of fascinating and hilarious stories and has directed over 100 musical shows. This talk is about the musical "Show Boat".
Musical Theatre was redefined when Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein collaborated to create this hard hitting musical masterpiece, “Show Boat”, based on an incredible novel by Edna Furber. They changed musical theatre forever. Broadway would never be the same again after the opening night in 1927, with the show's timeless hits such as “Ol’ Man River”, “Make Believe”, “Can’t Help Lovin Dat Man”
