Come and meet those dancing feet! The ultimate tap-dancing, show-biz musical sensation, "42nd Street" celebrates Broadway, Times Square, and the people who make magical musical theatre, featuring Emmy Award-winner Sally Struthers.

The score is chock-full of Broadway standards, including “You’re Getting To Be A Habit With Me,” “Dames,” “We’re In The Money,” “Lullaby of Broadway,” “Shuffle Off To Buffalo” and “Forty-Second Street.”
