BOY! DID THAT WORK! Since forming |
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. |
