“The Desert Song” is in part, inspired by Rudolph Valentino’s 1921 silent film, “The Sheik”, however, we are more familiar with the 1953 version starring Gordon McCrae and Kathryn Grayson. It remains the quintessential example of what we all expect from an operetta; an intensely romantic plot in an exotic locale. It’s played out to the lushest of musical scores as only Romberg could create, such as, “One Alone”, “My Desert is Waiting”, “The Riff Song” and “Romance”.

Learn what it means for a girl to have “It”. Dinner at T.J.’s has been a wonderful experience in the past. Outstanding food! Join us for this very special day and event.
