Florodora lives again

A full year after our staged concert production closed, the Florodora cast from 2009 re-united for a narrated program of highlights at the San Francisco Theater Festival on August 8th, 2010. Cast members enthusiastically reprised their roles and sung a progam including parts of the opening chorus and act one finale, Somebody, Phrenology, Shade of the Palm, Tact, Millionaire, Land of my Home, Tell Me Pretty Maiden (of course) and Queen of the Philippine Islands.

The beautiful "lost" Florodora score played to appreciative San Francisco audiences for and was greeted with applause by the theater festival attendees in the large 396 seat Forum venue. The cast really likes this show and a good time was had by all. Again.
