When the Jazz Age crossed over to France in the 1920s, Cole Porter was in the
middle of it.
In 1928, he created a revue for the Café des Ambassadeurs, Paris’ hottest
night club, which became quite the sensation.
Later that year, Porter had his first hit on Broadway and The Ambassador Revue
fell into oblivion.
This premiere production boasts the original Fred Waring arrangements
reconstructed by Vince Giordano.
