The 1940s. World War II. When men balanced machismo and swagger, and women lived between the worlds of great strength, and feminine allure!
The period was a struggle for either gender, and, with the boys away at battle, the ladies lent their support to the war effort in whatever ways they could.
Many volunteered in the factories, and armories. Some assembled bombs.
And a few gifted women worked the speakeasies, supper clubs, and lounges in every city in America.

In those troubled times, the birth of "Swing", and the Jazz Age, were on the horizon! People needed joy! Many found it in dance!
Here are some Jitterbuggers at their finest.
Dizzy Gillespie (L) was among the neat, elite, crowd!
Feel the magic of the PERIOD!
Put on your treaders and get ready to cut this rug,
Romeos and Butterflies!
Beware the Storm!
STORMY, set in post-World War II Harlem, New York, is the story of the beautiful songstress, Savannah “Stormy” James.

In this heart stopping, jaw dropping musical, Stormy is forced to overcome the death of her younger brother Clayton, a war hero, as two soldier boys vie for her affections.
