Five Guys Named Moe

Wed 03/05/2025 - Sun 04/06/2025

An exuberant tribute to the music of rhythm and blues pioneer and alto saxophonist, Louis Jordan, "Five Guys Named Moe" is an international sensation. "Five Guys Named Moe" is about our hero, Nomax – he's broke, his lovely girlfriend Lorraine left him and he's listening to the radio at 5:00 in the morning. Out of the radio, five guys named Moe - Big Moe, Four-Eyed Moe, Eat Moe, No Moe, and Little Moe emerging from his 1930s-style radio to comfort him. Set to Jordan's iconic rhythm and blues/jazz score, the Moes encourage Nomax to turn his life around and tell Lorraine that he loves her. "Five Guys Named Moe" features incredible dance numbers in addition to a great musical score.

"Five Guys Named Moe" originated in London in 1990 at the Theatre Royal Stratford. The show premiered on Broadway in April 1992 and enjoyed a 445-performance success. The musical was nominated for several Tony awards and won the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Entertainment and Best Choreography.

This fun, fast-moving musical will have audiences dancing in the their seats, as they enjoy a talented cast who will present this wonderful production of a timeless musical play.
