'Sweet Charity' at River Campus

A love story for the eternally optimistic is a good way to describe "Sweet Charity." The big musical production opened Wednesday at the Bedell Performance Hall at Southeast Missouri State University's River Campus and runs through Sunday. The 50-member cast with 250 costumes from the 1960s make the story of a dancer's quest for true love come alive.

Many musical lovers will remember Neil Simon's "Sweet Charity" for its original choreography by the iconic Bob Fosse, who molded a Broadway style that is still echoed in new musical productions.

For a production that features fun, flash and fantastic dancing, along with a touching moment of truth, go see "Sweet Charity."
