As much as anyone, Leiber and Stoller virtually invented rock “n” roll, and now their songs provide the basis for an electrifying entertainment that illuminates a golden age of American culture. In an idealized 50s setting, the classic themes of love won, lost, and imagined, blend with slice-oflife emotions. Featuring nearly 40 of the great songs of the era, Smokey Joe’s Café isn’t just great pop music, it’s compelling musical theater. The longest running musical revue in history, Smokey Joes’ Café was nominated for seven Tony Awards.
