Mountain Top Celebration Of Song

By the mid-1920s there were said to be 100,000 speakeasies in New York City. Ain't We Got Fun? is their story, and the story of how they ushered in the New York nightclub era. Join Mark Singer and Darcy Dunn of the Funny Valentines, who have been regularly featured performers at CMF, as well as Robin Kaiser, from 2005's highly successful Weill'd About You, on this tour of New York's exclusive and illegal hot spots of the Roaring Twenties - the El Fey, the Hotsy Totsy Club, the Club Gallant, the remarkable 21 Club. Hear the stories of the legendary celebrities, entertainers and gangsters that ruled the day. Above all, thrill to the music that was the soundtrack of an unforgettable era.
