Shows start at 6 pm.
A Broadway cabaret comes with the sundae. Patrons of The Music Man Ice Cream Shoppe are treated to an "Old Fashioned Ice Cream Shoppe" with a twist. Performing waiters and waitresses may ask guests, "What would you do for your ice cream sundae?" It's a scream when someone has to shake for his or her shake. A vaudeville style cabaret of upbeat American tunes is performed during every seating; sung by performers who maneuver around the entire shop, singing directly to individual guests and incorporating them into the show. "It's a family entertainment experience that appeals to all ages," Sessa-Agliata says.
