Warner Theatre, Torrington, CT, Adds Linda Eder, Melissa Manchester & More to 2012 Programme

The Warner Theatre has just announced AN EVENING WITH TOM WAPAT AND LINDA EDER, A HOLIDAY CONCERT WITH MELISSA MANCHESTER and more are to be added to their programme.

An Evening with Tom Wopat & Linda Eder Thursday: April 26 @ 8pm

About the show: "Showcasing one of the greatest contemporary voices of our time, Linda Eder’s diverse repertoire spans Broadway, standards, pop, country and jazz. Eder possesses a distinctive, unparalleled voice that has been thrilling and captivating audiences on recordings and in concert venues large and small for more than two decades.

The friendly, fun-loving and engaging Wopat first came to public attention in the late ’70s as the freewheeling Luke Duke on the comedy-action-adventure TV series The Dukes Of Hazzard. But it wasn’t long before his classically trained vocals took him away from car chases and landed him a role in Cy Coleman’s I love My Wife for his Broadway debut."
