Tapping the romantic mystique of the jukebox in popular culture, Red Cane Theatre’s latest show takes the form of a vaudeville revue that spans the eras of American popular music, from the Roaring ’20s to the modern day. Jumpin’ Jukebox fi nds the Phoinix Players (yes, the spelling is correct) back on their game, as they off er everything from tap numbers to rollicking rockers (Foreigner, no less!) to a Fosse-inspired showstopper that oozes with steamy seduction. It’s a fun show, with plenty to en- joy for everyone from the kiddos to Granny. Jumpin’ Jukebox plays 7pm Thursday, Friday & Saturday through May 31; tickets at 541- 556-4524. — Rick Levin 18 May 8, 2014 • eugeneweekly.com Recovering Couples Anony- mous, 7-8:30pm, Community of Christ Church, 1485 Gilham Rd.
