Description:

Conceived and developed by Lynnette Barkley and Christopher Mc Govern.
Book/Musical arrangement/Original songs by Christopher Mc Govern.

"Backward in High Heels" cleverly conveys the love/hate relationship between Ginger Rogers and her strong, independent mother, Lela. This brand-new musical chronicles Ginger's rise up the ladder of show business, from vaudeville dancer to one of Hollywood's biggest stars. Born to dance, Ginger defies her overly-protective mother with her boundless energy and ambition to succeed at all costs. Her dancing partnership with Fred Astaire made her the darling of the movie musical but she desired to be recognized as an actress and won an Oscar for her portrayal as "Kitty Foyle". Come 'dance' down memory lane to "I Got Rhythm", "Fascinatin' Rhythm", "Let's Call The Whole Thing Off", "Embraceable You", "We're in the Money" and "A Fine Romance".
