The long-running musical revue series, now in its 9th month at the Laurie Beechman Theatre, is delighted to present KAREN WYMAN who rose to the top of the pop charts in the 1960s and appeared on national TV on The Ed Sullivan Show (5x) and The Dean Martin Show when she was a teenage sensation.

It also became a popular YouTube video and is included on the Elektra soundtrack album. 'Pretty, perky Peggy King' has worked in films and television with nearly every star imaginable, from Frank Sinatra and Mel Torme (with whom she co-starred on a 50's TV series) to Sammy Davis, Jr. and Andre Previn, and her dozens of recordings through the years show just why she remains a favorite of America's finest composers and lyricists.
