aren Mason will present a special online video broadcast of her acclaimed show "Mason at Mama's in MARCH," recorded at the legendary New York nightclub Don't Tell Mama in 2015. Starting today, the show will be available to stream on a strictly limited basis for three performance times only: Thursday, OCTOBER 15 at 8:00 PM; Saturday, OCTOBER 17 at 8:00 PM; and Sunday, OCTOBER 18 at 3:00 PM.

"Mason at Mama's in MARCH" - directed by Barry Kleinbort with Christopher Denny serving as Music Supervisor - is a historic, sold-out, critically-acclaimed concert evening celebrating her return to the storied New York club she helped open almost 40 years ago. When the show debuted in 2015, Stephen Holden in The New York Times hailed it was a "dramatic tour de force, a steady balance between interpretive insight and vocal showmanship." In the powerful and heartfelt evening, Mason performs longtime fan favorites, selections from early in her lauded nightclub career, songs from her storied Broadway career, and highlights from her most recent album It's About Time from Zevely Records.

"I absolutely love this show," says Karen. "It was a party, singing every night to sold-out audiences.... pure joy from beginning to end! Finding the video one day at the beginning of our 2020 hunkering down, I fell in love again and knew I wanted to share this show, these great memories of opening night of Don't Tell Mama, with my fans. Come join the party!"

A special part of the show is the new album's title song "It's About Time," a fresh original composition written by Mason's longtime album producer Paul Rolnick and Shelly Markham. Called "a subtle but profoundly moving call for marriage equality" by The Chicago Tribune, it was created for a wedding of Karen's friends after Marriage Equality passed in New York State. "I was thrilled to be asked to sing at their beautiful day and told my husband Paul Rolnick, he should write this custom song for the happy couple. It continues to inspire me because I still feel the power of love and truth! It's about time for us all to stand up for what we believe."

Paul Rolnick provides skillful sound design for "Mason at Mama's in MARCH," which was filmed by New York City videographer and filmmaker, Michael Lee Stever.
