Roxy Regional Theatre | Roxy Regional Theatre

With a nod to yesteryear, the Cumberland Winds Jazz Project is teaming with Clarksville's oldest professional live theatre this fall to recreate an old-time radio show from the 1940s.

Traditional big band music will combine with radio skits, vintage advertisements and maybe a war newsflash or two at THE JAZZ PROJECT OLD-TIME RADIO SHOW at the Roxy Regional Theatre on Friday, November 16, and Saturday, November 17, at 7:30pm.

In the intimate setting of the Roxy Regional Theatre, The Jazz Project will present music from many of the popular big bands of the 1940s, including Count Basie, Glenn Miller, Woody Herman and Gene Krupa. The evenings' featured vocalist will be Sarah Queen, singing such all-time favorites as "'S Wonderful," "I've Got A Gal in Kalamazoo," "As Time Goes By," "Stomping at the Savoy" and "Chattanooga Choo Choo."

Tickets to THE JAZZ PROJECT OLD-TIME RADIO SHOW are $15 and may be purchased online at www.roxyregionaltheatre.org, by phone at (931) 645-7699, or at the Roxy Regional Theatre during regular box office hours (9:00am to 2:00pm, Monday through Friday, and one hour prior to curtain).
