The great love story of Irving Berlin, America’s favorite songwriter, and Ellin Mackay, Irish-American heiress, is not well known, but Mark Nadler and KT Sullivan bring their romance to palpitating life through such seductive songs as “Cheek To Cheek”, “Let’s Face the Music and Dance”, “I Got Lost In His Arms”, and of course, “Always”. Berlin’s sacrifices during World War II are made vivid with such classics as “Oh, How I Hate To Get Up In the Morning” and “God Bless America”. This energetic show, which can be performed in One Act or two, covers the 102 years of Irving Berlin’s life, starting as an immigrant on the Lower East Side of Manhattan to being America’s most successful composer, from Tin Pan Alley to the Top 40 and Broadway.
