A Brand New Show from America’s Premiere Doo Wop Group
The dynamic Broadway stars of The Doo Wop Project are on a mission to put Doo Wop
on
everyone’s playlist! With their smokin’ hot band, they capture and deliver the classic
sounds of
the guys who, back in the day, harmonized with each other on stoops, in the subway,
and on
street corners, and they have also created a unique, exciting, fun way to “Doowop-ify”
today's
biggest hits – reimagining them as though they had been written during the Doo Wop
era! Once
you experience The Doo Wop Project live on stage, you’ll see why everyone around the
country
calls them AMERICA’S PREMIERE DOO WOP GROUP.
Their brand new 90 minute show -- “Echoes of the Street” -- keeps the classic sounds
of Doo
Wop alive for audiences of all ages. You’ll hear Doo Wop classics like the Del Vikings’
“Whispering Bells”, The Tymes’ “So Much in Love”, The Marcels’ “Blue Moon”, The Four
Seasons’ “Sherry” and Motown’s “My Girl”. And you’ll fall in love with The Doo Wop
Project’s
Doowop-ified versions of contemporary songs by artists like Taylor Swift, Pharell
Williams, Daft
Punk and Chris Stapleton.
This show celebrates a music genre that has never lost its cool….while making it cool
for
generations to come. #SAVEDOOWOP
