OREGON – The Coliseum Museum in Oregon presents their second spring concert with a WWII Radio Hour Concert on May 16.
Featuring favorites such as “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy,” “Bei Mir Bist Du Schon,” “In the Mood” and “Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree,” the costumed and piano-accompanied trio reenact a 1940s radio hour that is perfect for all ages! While answering musical requests from soldiers and loved ones during wartime, Patti, Maxine and Andrew entertain the “studio audience” with Andrews Sisters-style tunes and choreography, Abbott and Costello comedy sketches, and a touching tribute to Veterans of the U. S. Armed Forces.
Doors open at 6 p.m. with patriotic music by pianist Beverly Kearns followed by the WWII Radio Hour at 7 p.m.
Tickets are $30 for CMAAA members and $35 for non-members and available by calling the Coliseum Museum at 815-595-5810. You can also register online atwww.cmaaa.org/events.html. The concert is sponsored by Bry Antiques.
