Lauren Stanford to Bring MORE THAN YOU KNOW to The Triad, 6/5

Lauren Stanford portrays Helen Morgan in More Than You Know on May 22nd and June 5th, 2016 at 7:00pm at The Triad, 158 W 72nd Street.

Late nights in Prohibition-era NYC you could find singer Helen Morgan iconically perched on the piano at her club, relying too much on brandy and 'torching' until even the most hardened gangster wept into his beer. A star that has mostly faded from the modern public's conciousness, during the 1920's and 30's she was arguably the most famous singer in New York City. Morgan rose to fame in 1927 from her portrayal of "Julie" in the original broadway production of Showboat and subsequent 1936 film, and was also well known for her nightclub acts.

More Than You Know is a dramatic recreation of Helen Morgan's final night in residency at New York City's Simplon Club in 1932. Written and performed by Lauren Stanford, the play contains songs the chanteuse made famous, including Jerome Kern's "Bill" and "Why Was I Born.

Directed by MAC award winning director, Eric Michael Gillett. Music Direction by Jonathan Larson Award winner, Mike Pettry.

Stanford in "More Than You Know" plays The Triad at 158 W 72nd Street on May 22nd and June 5th, 2016 at 7:00pm. Tickets are $15 ($10 for MAC members) with a 2 drink minimum. Tickets and information are available at www.triadnyc.com.

Stanford was the 2013 Metrostar Winner and named by Nitelife Exchange as one of the 25 people in cabaret to watch in 2015. She was nominated for a 2015 MAC award for her debut cabaret show at The Metropolitan Room. She has toured North America in the musical Grease with Frankie Avalon, A Christmas Carol, and Laura Ingalls Wilder. Lauren played "Bess" in the world premier musical Houdini.
