Colony Theatre

The Colony Theatre Company is excited to present the fifth and final production of its 36th season, the classy, sassy musical, THE ALL NIGHT STRUT!, conceived by Fran Charnas, directed & choreographed by Murphy Cross and Paul Kreppel (Jay Johnson: The Two and Only!) with musical direction by Dean Mora. THE ALL NIGHT STRUT! will preview on Wednesday, March 30; Thursday, March 31; and Friday, April 1 at 8:00pm and will open on Saturday, April 2 at 8:00pm and continue through Sunday, May 1 at The Colony Theatre, 555 North Third Street (at Cypress) adjacent to the Burbank Town Center.

THE ALL NIGHT STRUT! is a musical celebration that carries us through the Depression, World War II, and the postwar boom. From the funky jive of Harlem to the sophisticated elegance of El Morocco and the romance of the Stage Door Canteen, this international hit sings, soars, and struts with its sublime, timeless music and sheer energy with songs that tug the heart, tickle the funny bone, and raise the rafters. Songs include In The Mood, As Time Goes By, Chattanooga Choo Choo, Ain't Misbehavin', and more, by such legendary composers as Hoagy Carmichael, Frank Loesser, Duke Ellington, Johnny Mercer, Jerome Kern, and Cab Calloway.

THE ALL NIGHT STRUT! will open on Saturday, April 2 at 8:00pm and continue through Sunday, May 1. Performances for THE ALL NIGHT STRUT! are Thursdays & Fridays at 8:00pm; Saturdays at 3:00pm & 8:00pm; and Sundays at 2:00pm.
