When the world's in perpetual warfare someone should be making a profit! Join musical trio The Wonderful Sisters as they dance and dazzle their way through a classic 1940's style USO show. Their angelic voices and toe-tapping tunes will have you lock-n-loading before you can say 'Left wing conspiracy!' Because all's fair in love and war, but nobody ever mentioned peace.
