“A Couple of Swells,” comedy cabaret, is in its last weekend at Act II Playhouse in Ambler with Tony Braithwaite and Jennifer Childs.

The show title is a nod to the film, “Easter Parade” with its legendary Irving Berlin score.

“A Couple of Swells” is written and performed by Tony Braithwaite and Jennifer Childs. Owen Robbins is Musical Director and Accompanist. 

Comedic interludes are delivered by Owens at the piano and featured is a hysterical set from the original Braithwaite and Childs characters, “T.B and Jenny,” performing from the deck of a Love Boat-style cruise ship lounge.  

“A Couple of Swells” runs now through Jan. 30. “Jen and I collaborated in early 2020 on “Together Again For the First Time” and are excited to be back on stage with a new show,” continued Braithwaite.

Braithwaite added, “Comedy collaborations are a joy to create and we felt it was time to bring a cabaret back to the Playhouse. I’m honored to be onstage with the amazingly talented, and very funny, Jen Childs.”
