From gospel to Motown to disco to “Thriller”-era Michael Jackson and beyond, the musical delivers a grand tribute to the almighty powers of timeless, groundbreaking tunes that have endured across generations.
Fans of Felicia P. Fields can well imagine the fun the Chicago star has with lyrics like “You always ready every time that I call / What I like about you, you never stall."
