Cooking with the Calamari Sisters: Mangia Italiano!
Merry-Go-Round Downtown presents Cooking with the Calamari Sisters: Mangia Italiano! This new musical was specially selected to MGR's first presentation in a new and intimate theatre in Downtown Auburn at Auburn Public Theater on Genesee Street. Running July 13th through August 20th, Cooking with the Calamari Sisters takes place on the set of the sister's fictional cable-access cooking show Mangia Italiano. The zany Calamari sisters take their audiences on a wild and laugh filled romp as they prepare their latest dishes while belting out all of your old favorites from "Que Sera Sera" to "Mambo Italiano." One word of warning, sometime the girls' language can be as spicy as their cooking so this is not one for the bambinos or anyone who may not like colorful language.
42nd Street
Just when you're ready to hang up your dance shoes, 42nd Street will be tapping its way onto the Merry-Go-Round stage. The original song and dance fable of the Great White Way will be lively, lavish and spectacular; it has everything you love about a Broadway musical including incredible numbers "We're in the Money," "Shuffle Off to Buffalo," and "Lullaby of Broadway." July 27th though August 17th "Come and Meet Those Dancing Feet!"
