Wayne Moore, Bryan Miller. Brenda Silas Moore, Gilmore Rizzo, 4 Friends

 ONCE UPON A TIME FOUR VERY BUSY FRIENDS DECIDED TO DO A SHOW SO THAT THEY COULD SPEND MORE TIME TOGETHER ...

BOY!  DID THAT WORK!

Since forming    Brenda, Wayne, Bryan and Gilmore have been doing concerts, traveling, and recording their new CD together and couldn't be happier about it.


 is a lively, sparkling show featuring Broadway Show Tunes, Comedy and extraordinary singers.  These four, talented performers have as much fun on stage together as the audience does watching them!




Within the first fifteen minutes of this show, you'll learn why these people have remained friends for so long!  They thoroughly enjoy each others' company, and the feeling is infectious to the audience.  Both Wayne & Bryan accompany the quartet on the piano, switching frequently to make a wide variety of performance combinations.  Original songs like the comedic "Bette Davis Chorus" or "A High Class Act"  or the moving anthem "One Power" have been written especially for this show - usually by Wayne or Bryan.

  is a classy romp all the way!
