"Her name was Lola. She was a showgirl"¦" Barry Manilow's Grammy Award-winning song you never forgot is now brought to life onstage!
A love letter to the Technicolor® musicals of the 1940's, Barry Manilow's COPACABANA presents the story of Lola as told through the eyes of Stephen, a present day aspiring songwriter whose imagination takes him back to a time when "music and passion were always in fashion."
He dreams up Lola, fresh off the plane from Tulsa, who arrives in New York with show-biz aspirations. Tony (who looks amazingly like Stephen!) is a bartender/composer who falls in love with Lola and helps her become a Copa girl. While performing, Lola attracts the amorous attentions of Rico (who wears a diamond). Rico abducts Lola and takes her to his rival nightclub in Havana. Tony, with the help of his Copacabana friends, must now rescue Lola before"¦ well, even if you know the song, there are still a few surprises!
Full of huge, splashy production numbers and unforgettable new Barry Manilow songs, COPACABANA is a return to traditional American musical theatre. You and your audiences will fall in love!
