The 4 Guyz in
Life could be a dream….” “…A fabulously fun two acts of music
that brought theaudience to its feet…”
– Damien Jacques of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

BOCA RATON, FL: From December 4th through December 13th, 2015 audiences at the Willow Theatre in Boca Raton’s Sugar Sand Park will be invited to spend an evening of music and nostalgia as The 4 Guyz harmonize, reminisce, and ‘drift back to The Good ‘Ole Dayz of drive-ins, sock hops, greasers and hot rods’ in 4 Ever ‘50s.
A treat for history buffs and music lovers alike, the show asks how many of the jingles of that special era rattled off during the evening will audiences remember and sing along to? Can they name all the top television shows from the 1950’s and early 1960’s? And of course, can they sing along to such timeless classics as “Teenager in Love,” “Blue Moon,” “At the Hop,” “Why Do Fools Fall in Love?” and many, many more.
Debuting over 10 years ago and running continuously throughout the Midwest, 4 Ever ‘50s, featuring The 4 Guyz has consistently sold out wherever and whenever it has played. The group’s mixture of nostalgia, fun, and audience participation resonates with theatre and music patrons of all ages.
When the group’s founder, actor and musician James A. Skiba relocated to South Florida, “I missed performing the show immensely,” he explains. “And I truly believe we can capture the same magic here that we have done elsewhere.”
The other members of the group feel the same way: “As soon as I told them I’d be producing 4 Ever ‘50s down here, two of our original ‘Guyz’, J.W. Anderson and Stephen Uselman arranged to take time off work and are coming to South Florida from the Midwest to help teach the show to our local cast, and to participate in several of the performances themselves,” Skiba says.
“There’s an abundance of amazing talent down here,” he continues. “And we think we found the perfect mix of charm, warmth, comedy, and beautiful voices that blend together on the four part harmonies throughout the show.”
The new Guyz are Shane Cooney, Larry Buzzeo, Cameron Jordan, and Steven Michael Kennedy as a swing.”
4 Ever ‘50s will run from December 4th through December 13th at the Willow Theatre in Sugar Sand Park. Tickets are $30; group rates (6 or more tickets purchased in one transaction) are $24. Tickets can be purchased on line at www.willowtheatre.org/4ever-50s or by phone at 561-347-3948.

“The show’s song list is irresistible ear candy for folks who grew up on
sock hops and 45 rpm records.” “… the show embraces the
audience with a sincere charm.”
