Watch Christopher Peterson’s Amazing Judy Garland (Produced by Digital Island)

“Typhoon Judy” opened on April 5 with one of the most amazing performance ever seen on the stage.

Take a look at this incredible performance by Christopher Peterson from the Waterfront’s opening night concert “S’Wonderful.”

“Typhoon Judy” isn’t an impersonation of Ms. Garland, it’s a true recreation of one of the most brilliant performers in history during one of the bleakest periods in her life.

“Typhoon Judy” runs for 7 performances only — April 5-13.

Last 2 Chances to See “Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks”

Only 2 more chances to see “Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks” — the heart-warming comedy at the Waterfront Playhouse, starring Joy Hawkins and Denis Hyland, two of the Waterfront’s most amazing performers. When a formidable retired widow hires an ex-Broadway chorus boy to give her private dance lessons, it’s hate at first sight. Eventually they both learn unexpected lessons about friendship and life. Part comedy, part drama and part cha-cha-cha. “Konk Life” called it “a world-class show not to be missed.” Solares Hill said “It will make you laugh and laugh and laugh. And then, very gently, it will break your heart.” LAST TWO SHOWS: MUST END FEBRUARY 16, 2013 (8 PM)
