Set against the backdrop of 1920's and 30's show business, it seamlessly blends the worlds of carnival, vaudeville, and Hollywood glamour.

This vivid musical is based on the remarkable true story of the Hilton twins, Daisy and Violet, who were legends of their time. The very thing that makes them different....makes them extraordinary. It will never leave you.
