Has anyone seen the show on Monday nights with Donna Moore and Shawn Dunning? If you did can you tell me if you liked it and what kind of a show it is? Thanks!!

We have been three times and love it!!! These talented people do imitations and it is fabulous and entertaining. A must see.

BTW, it is Dunning Shaw, not Shawn Dunning

We've seen it three times and plan on seeing it a forth time with our next guests. Moore and Shaw are both outstanding singers in their rights. Their show is impersonations of famous singers. They not only impersonate their voices, they do a tag team act coming out dressed in costumes that you'll recognize as the trademarks of the famous vocalists. It is hilarious. But more than that, you'll be awed by their voices and mannerisms. I love the show.

They do Dolly Parton, John Denver, Willie Nelson, Sonny and Cher, Lady Gaga, Neil Diamond/Barbara Streisand (and that is just the male act Shaw doing both!!)....

Default wonderful show

I've seen the show 4 times, and LOVE every minute of the show which is clever, funny, with EXCELLENT impressions, and all round great entertainment. We noticed that when a family with young kids were in the front row, the performers were "family" orientated. Other times, with no youngsters present, the show was a little risque (but not gross) when opportunity presented itself. Great value, great show, and I highly recommend it. Can't wait to go again - 2 weeks time

Off the main subject for just a moment--don't miss the Mark & Clark show at Katie Belle's on Tues. May 22nd. Two shows 5:00 and 9:00 pm. You will love their performance and truly professional show.

We have seen the show three times and will be going a fourth time in a few weeks. We bring new guests each time. We actually stumbled into it the first time as we were just looking to have dinner and there were two seats left for the show. We loved it the first time and every time after. YouTube has some short video clips. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Arh-uh5IY7I]The Donna & Dunning Show Clips - YouTube[/ame]
If the link doesn't work just search for Donna Moore Dunning Shaw on YouTube or Google them. Both performers have a website.

Default Great Entertainment

When we have guests, we make sure that they are here on Monday evenings so we can take them to this extremely entertaining show.

What type of performers are Mark & Clark? I Googled and could only come up with dueling pianos.

Actually, his real name is Shawn Dunning. When he performs, he goes by Dunning Shaw. He's awesome !

Mark & Clark are identical twins who play twin grand pianos with a modern day flare.
They are similiar to Ferrante & Teisher of yesteryear however they include the grandeur of the grand pianos along with comedy skits and modern music. They played world wide and had their own club in Las Vegas for many years before returning to Florida last year where they started their career back in the early 70's (Ft. Lauderdale to be exact). They played the Church on the Sqaure back on Januyary 12th to a sold out audience and many at that time asked that they return to the Villages. Guaranteed you won't be disappointed with this show.
