A journey in music and song along highways and byeways of love and romance, diverting to the through roads and cul-de-sacs of unrequited love before arriving at destination Happiness.

Charlie and Maxine chart some of the routes signposted by popular English, American and French composers from the 1920s to the present day, interpreting the tunes and songs with their unique blend of swing, jazz and world music.

This fun cabaret performance maps out the journey from going out on the town looking for someone special, meeting on the dance floor and falling in love, getting married - or not - getting lost along the way, what can go wrong...to summing it all up in the light of experience.

Maxine Green vocals and guitar

Sway
Other dancers may be on the floor,
Dear, but my eyes will see only you.
Only you have that magic technique.
When we sway I go weak.

"The combination of sublime clarinet and saxophone playing from Charlie Hearnshaw and delightful vocals from Maxine Green, who sings with a wonderfully light, yet seductive touch..." Western Daily Press
