How someone so young knows the dance styles of the 1930’s and ‘40’s...
—STEVE ALLEN—YES, THAT STEVE ALLEN!

“Enjoy a first class floor show, This Joint Is Jumpin’ in which Broadway veteran, Larry Marshall, leads a company of eight nonpareil singers and dancers through a smashing set of ‘40’s numbers, directed and choreographed by Laura Stilwell. This is roof raising entertainment.”

Headlining at the Manhattan night spot, The Supper Club/Edison Theater, is the upbeat musical revue, This Joint Is Jumpin’. A swinging toe-tapping revival, along with a 17-piece orchestra made up of musicians who also perform with Duke Ellington’s band and Lionel Hampton’s band—this depiction of musical entertainment from the Cotton Club era, is nothing short of contagious.
