That '70s Showcase: Disco Days & Booge Nights
by Rita Kohn May 7, 2008

Four stars
Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra Northwest Airlines Pops; Hilbert Circle Theatre; May 2-4

Jack Everly’s program took us along high and low roads traversed by the “ME” generation, including signature TV and movie music theme songs: remember The Brady Bunch, The Jeffersons, MASH and the Muppet Show, Jaws, Rocky, The Godfather; and the groups with moves and platform shoes: ABBA, Bee Gees, Carpenters; the enduring songs by Sir Elton; the musicals: CATS, My Fair Lady, etc. Special mention is due Clare Henkel for amazing costumes, Jen Ladner for zippy choreography, Laura Schnyder for lighting, David Levy for staging.
