PERFECT HERMANY BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND Plays Laurie Beechman

Jason Graae, the L.A. DRAMA CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD winner and Broadway and cabaret star who debuted his acclaimed tribute to Jerry Herman, "PERFECT HERMANY" in NYC in October, returns to The Laurie Beechman Theatre in West Bank Cafe, 407 West 42nd Street, on December 7th for two more performances: Wednesday, December 7 at 7 PM and Thursday, December 8 at 10 PM. The sold out engagement in October earned Graae unqualified raves. There is a $20 cover and two drink minimum for "PERFECT HERMANY - BY POPULAR DEMAND!". Reservations: (212) 695-6909.

Graae celebrates Herman's 80th birthday with songs from such beloved Herman classics as HELLO DOLLY!, THE GRAND TOUR, MAME, LA CAGE AUX FOLLES, MACK AND MABEL and MILK AND HONEY. "PERFECT HERMANY" features Musical Director John Boswell with direction by Lee Tannen.

PERFECT HERMANY grew out of Jason's long association with Jerry Herman and his respect and admiration for his work. Jason toured the country with Jerry Herman in ASCAP's HELLO JERRY!; starred in the West Coast revival of THE GRAND TOUR, repeating the role at the York Theatre's Musicals in Mufti; was featured in MACK AND MABEL in Concert at Lincoln Center, and recently appeared on PBS in the Jerry Herman documentary "Words and Music".

Jason's solo show "Coup de Graae!" won the 2006 New York Nightlife Award, The Bistro Award for Best Major Engagement and was named one of Time Out New York's Top 10 Cabaret Shows of the Year. He has also won 3 more Bistro Awards, an Ovation Award for "Forbidden Broadway Y2KLA!," an Artistic Director's Achievement Award for "Fully Committed," and a Santa Barbara Indie Award for "High Button Shoes."

Jason 40+ CDS include his two solo CDs: "You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile - Jason Graae sings Charles Strouse" and "Jason Graae LIVE at The Cinegrill" (Fynsworth Alley).
