It’s 1938 , RKO is making "The Story of Vernon and Irene Castle" with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, and they’ve hired Irene Castle herself to be an advisor on the film. Torn between her wish to honor her late husband and the director's desire to bring in the movie on time and under budget, Irene sifts through a lifetime of memories – and some of the most romantic dance sequences ever created.
The reviews are in for Castle Walk ! You can read praise for the NYMF production from Woman Around Town , Talkin' Broadway , and DC Theatre Scene !
