Company Jump, a musical tribute showcasing the 1940s swing-music styles of the Andrews sisters (Boogie-Woogie Bugle Boy, Don`t Sit Under the Apple Tree, etc.), is delighted to tour the Okanagan for the first time.
A hop, skip and a jump down memory lane, Company Jump brings the swinging sounds and on stage antics of the Andrews Sisters to life. Lose yourself in the music that defined a generation and leave your worries behind as the girls sing their way through some of the best-loved popular tunes of yesteryear in this comedic musical theatre production. A true family affair, this show weaves brassy and seamless vocals with swingin’ dance and plenty of audience interaction.
The show features three professional singers; Rossland resident/creator Nadine Tremblay and the fabulous talents of Vancouverites Andréa Isaak, and Marie West. Tremblay explains, “we are accompanied by our low maintenance virtual band, not our first pick but the only affordable option when touring a show like this one.”
The show is suitable for audiences of all ages and will entertain anyone who enjoys on-stage antics, catchy tunes, 1940’s style, and Swing. Regardless of the audience demographic everyone is encouraged to participate by being raucous as G.I’s serving overseas during World War II would have been!
The Company Jump tour begins in Princeton on Remembrance Day and finishes in Christina Lake on November 22nd. As Tremblay explains “we sold out at every venue throughout our Kootenay Summer Tour and look forward to playing a region that we know is filled with fans of that eras music. “ Don’t miss this show, it’s high energy is guaranteed to put you in a swingin’ good mood.
