Description
Make a date for the ultimate romantic evening as singer/comedienne Laura Ainsworth and singer/pianist/recording artist Michael Gott present their critically-acclaimed salute to the most sophisticated composer of the Great American Songbook, Cole Porter. From the aching "Night & Day" and "Love For Sale" to the hilarious "Tale of the Oyster," Ainsworth & Gott take you back in time to an elegant Manhattan nightclub in an era "when popular music was clever and witty and romantic and sexy and written for grownups!" (Denison Herald Democrat)
BroadwayWorld.com raves that Ainsworth & Gott are "Dazzling...Sublime... Magnificent Entertainment!" And the Ft. Worth Star-Telegram said this show "brings together two of Dallas/Ft. Worth's most popular and talented acts."
