Description It’s delightful, it’s delicious, it’s de-lovely.’
Jane’s Great Aunt Alice was a close personal friend of Ira Gershwin and was a regular guest at his Sunday Soirées. Other regulars were Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, Noël Coward, George Gershwin, and many others.
Alice dined out for years on the stories of rivalries, feuds, and great friendships. Told with humour, charm and interlaced with songs from these marvellous early 20th Century composers, Sundays at Ira’s is a nostalgic and entertaining night out. Jane is accompanied by Michael on piano.
