WWII Radio Hour Concert at The Coliseum
May 16 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Swing into the 1940s at WWII Radio Hour Concert
The Coliseum Museum (CMAAA) in Oregon, IL, presents its second spring concert, a WWII Radio Hour Concert, on May 16 at 7 p.m.
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 6:00 p.m. with patriotic music by pianist Beverly Kearns, followed by the WWII Radio Hour at 7 p.m.
