Easy Street first produced "Pump Boys" 30 years ago. The lighthearted musical that takes place at a gas station-diner would go on to run for 200 performances at the former Uptown Theater – a record breaking run of two years.
The 30th anniversary cast will include many of the original members: Maureen Collins, Robyn Bass, Rick Blackson and Todd Hancock. Randy Bass will fill the void left by the death of Jeff Sanders from the original cast.
The show includes a number of original country rock songs.
I have seen this show. Since its conception.
