This musical comedy about life on and off the golf course at a country club features local actors and musicians performing the original music of Twin Cities jazz pianist Tom Prin. The show’s 15 original songs will have you tapping your feet and s(w)inging along. The jazz piano score features a strong Caribbean beat that will warm your heart and make you feel like it’s a summer day, even if you can’t tell a sand trap from a mouse trap.
