Dames at Sea is a musical with book and lyrics by George Haimsohn and Robin Miller and music by Jim Wise.

It originally played Off-Off-Broadway in 1966 at the Caffe Cino and then played Off-Broadway, starring newcomer Bernadette Peters, beginning in 1968 for a successful run. The television version was broadcast on the Bell System Family Theater on NBC on November 15, 1971.

2014-08-01A giant clown, spectacular video, light and pyro effects, an excellently choreographed dance show, impressive artists, an excellent band with Jesse Ritch as special guest and, of course, lots of DJ BoBo - that's the recipe for the Swiss megastar's latest stroke of genius. The breathtakingly large stage turns out to be a giant clown that transforms the hall into a circus ring that is hard to beat in terms of entertainment value. The stage alone is technically impressive: a sophisticated light show and state-of-the-art video mapping allow for rapid scene changes and even allow DJ BoBo to talk to the clown - or dance with his own projection in the background.
