Five Guys Named Moe
Book by
Clarke Peters
Music and Lyrics by
Louis Jordan
Two Acts, Revue, Rated G
His woman left him, he's broke, and it's almost five o'clock in the mornin'. But don't be worryin' 'bout our hero, Nomax. Out of Nomax's '30s-style radio pop FIVE GUYS NAMED MOE. They cajole, wheedle, comfort and jazz him with the whimsical hit songs of Louis Jordan, one of the most beloved songwriting talents of the twentieth century.
With more than fifty top ten singles on the rhythm and blues charts, this great composer and saxophonist brought a popular new slant to jazz that paved the way for the rock-and-roll of the 1950's.
An international sensation, FIVE GUYS NAMED MOE is an exhilarating, all-embracing theatrical experience,
complete with some uproarious "audience participation" that'll have
spectators leaping out of their seats to join the celebration!
