Reville 3 trio performs in wind-whipped conditions to small audience
The wind whipped through the Mabery pavilion causing the performers to hang on to their skirts and some in the audience to huddle in corners protected from the gusts. And the dust from the gravel floor kicked up in the faces of the audience sitting on steel backed chairs. But in true show business style, the show “went on.” For the audience of about 50 patrons, most quite elderly, who braved the wind, threatening skies, and hard seats, it was a delightful evening with the Reville 3.

The trio brought cool nostalgic sounds and charming choreography to the small but appreciative audience. They sang with precision harmonies and swinging vocal rhythms, incorporating many of the songs made popular by the Andrews Sisters. They told the story of three ladies living during WWII, woven with letters inspired by actual correspondence during the war.
The College continues to bring fine performances to the Verde Campus with little advertising about them. One also wonders at the wisdom of the selection of this particular program for the Verde Campus. This is more a niche presentation aimed at veterans groups and national patriotic celebrations. Without substantial advertising, a regular spring program to provide adequate notice of the concert, the turn-out for such a program is predictably small in the Verde Valley.
