Any Wednesday, the series of live performances that celebrates the best in cabaret, jazz and Broadway, will return in its new home at the Lincoln Center Barnes and Noble, 66th Street and Broadway, New York City.

In February, the series will feature performances by Barbara Fasano, Quinn Lemley and Charlotte Rae. Each performance will begin at 6:00 p.m., last approximately 30 minutes, and will be followed by an autograph/meet-and-greet session with the artist. Ample seating is available in the comfortable third floor events space, and, as always, there is no charge.

Fasano will be featured on February 7th.  "Elegant and sensuous Fasano brings her jazz-tinged interpretations of the haunting, bluesy melodies of Harold Arlen to open our new season. Her recent album, 'Written in the Star,' received rave reviews; now's your chance to hear these renditions live. Joining Barbara is her music arranger/co-producer of her CD, John di Martino and her special guest, Eric Comstock," state press materials.

Quinn Lemley will be featured on February 14th.  "How better to celebrate Valentine's Day, than with a tribute to Hollywood's love goddess, Rita Hayworth? Sultry cabaret/theater performer Lemley will give us a preview of her show, 'The Heat Is On,' which she will be doing at BB King's on February 22. Please join us as Lemley shares stories and songs associated with the cinema temptress, as well as her own interpretations of other American standards."

Charlotte Rae will take the stage on February 21st. "Rae – a musical theater veteran – Threepenny Opera, Li'l Abner, the Encores' 70 Girls, 70 – as well as the television star of "The Facts of Life" – joins us to celebrate the CD release of her album "Songs I Taught My Mother" from PS Classics. This delightful artist will share a mix of novelty songs and Broadway classics, accompanied by the noted musical arranger, David Lewis."

There will be no performance on February 28 due to a previously scheduled event, but Any Wednesday will return in March with new slate of performers, including jazz singer Tony DeSare and cabaret chanteusse Moira Danis.
