Cabaret Darlings Barbara Bleier and Austin Pendleton return to Pangea with some OLD FRIENDS!

Austin Pendleton  & Barbara Bleier will make their London cabaret debut with 'Barbara and Austin Sing Steve & Oscar, and then some……' at The Pheasantry in Chelsea. The show will run for two nights only, on Friday and Saturday, January 13th & 14th, 2023.

Austin and Barbara share a special night of musical storytelling created by four artists who made a great team.

Austin Pendleton and Barbara Bleier were working with Barbara Maier Gustern at the time of her death and they will perform in her honor in a Sondheim/Hammerstein tribute show on March 27th.

Barbara Bleier and Austin Pendleton are at it again. But to be honest, even during the pandemic they were never gone. They created a show that Pangea streamed for virtual audiences. Tonight that show LIFE, AND LOVE, AND WHO KNOWS WHAT ELSE?  had its debut in front of a live audience in the back room of Pangea. Bleier explained to us that when they were putting the show together two years ago, they intended to write a show with a political theme. But in these extraordinary times, they have discovered that really everything is political. Everything. And that’s the show they have put together: an evening about the politics of patriotism, the politics of career, the politics of aging, the politics of men and women, the politics of marriage, the politics of family, and the politics of falling in love. It is, in fact, a show about everything.

The team of Barbara Bleier and Austin Pendleton return to Pangea in Life, Love and Who Knows What Else? for three performance, on Wednesdays, October 13/20/27th all at 6:00 PM.
