Sizzlin’ Seniors




        Erin go Bragh! The Sizzlin’ Seniors had a
      wonderful St Patrick’s Day Show at Bixby
      Knolls Towers, 3737 Atlantic Avenue, Long
      Beach. The show featured the group,
      dressed in their festive greens, performing
      much loved Irish songs, (everybody
      remembers Danny Boy). There was also an
      Irish jig or two and the guys telling us
      What Do You Do With a Drunken Sailor!
      The audience participated in a sing-a-long
      to I’m Lookin Over a Four Leaf Clover led
      by Alma in her lovely green dress.  Our
      featured member, Jack, sang Peg O My
      Heart backed up by Judy and Ginni.

        Looking ahead in 2020, The Sizzlin’
      Seniors are preparing for both the San
      Diego Fair and the Orange County Fair.
      They will be performing their special
      production for this year, The Fabulous 50s,
      60s, and 70s. Everyone has favorites from
      this era and there will even be poodle skirts
      and songs that will be immediately
      recognized and remembered. The audience
      will be invited to participate in a dance
      popular at that time.
