Nov. 4, 6-7 The World Goes Round Jewish Community Center, 333 S. 132nd St. Nov. 4 & 6, 7 p.m.; Nov. 7, 2 p.m. 706.0778, jccomaha.org You just may recognize a few of these songs. The World Goes Round is a musical review featuring the work of Kander and Ebb — the duo behind shows like Chicago, Cabaret, Kiss of the Spider Woman, and movies like New York, New York and Funny Lady. This is the Mother Lode for fans of Broadway musicals. “There is not a bad song in the show, and it moves fast … there is tap dancing, banjo playing, roller skating, singing in foreign languages … each song tells its own story,” says actress Kirstin Kluver. “Theme is: that no matter what, the world goes round … somebody loses and somebody wins … but the world goes round.” The show features some of Omaha’s best talent and it has been hailed as the best show ever at the JCC. You be the judge.
