LOUIS & KEELY: ‘LIVE’ AT THE SAHARA

SIX DANCE LESSONS IN SIX WEEKS

What becomes a legend most?

Add to the equation six-time Ovation Award winner David Engel as Miss Caron’s onstage partner and what you have at the Laguna Playhouse is a production Broadway can only wish were on the Great White Way.
