The Green Room 42 will present Lianne Marie Dobbs in the premiere of “The Windmills of My Mind… For Dusty Springfield” - a spectacular night of sensitive exploration into one of the most soulful voices of the 20th century; Dusty Springfield. A four-piece band, led by renowned music director Ron Abel, will rock original arrangements of songs by Bacharach & David, Carole King, Melissa Manchester, Michel Legrand, Peter Allen and more.  Dobbs keeps it “saucy and sunny” (Variety) with playful ‘brain hacks' used by the neuro-spicy creative mind of both Dusty and herself. 

Join NY stage & TV actor and cabaret favorite, Lianne Marie Dobbs, as she candidly shares all that she's [still] learning about ADHD, fidget toys, breathwork, and emotional support animals - and shares how Dusty succeeded in an era that predated any discussion of ‘brain hacks'!  

The eclectic and powerful music of Dusty Springfield is arranged and played by music director Ron Abel at the piano along with Sean Harkness (guitar), Tom Hubbard (bass) and Rex Benincasa (drums). 

Lianne Marie Dobbs in “The Windmills of My Mind… For Dusty Springfield” plays at The Green Room 42 for one night only on Saturday, February 17th at 9:30pm. Tickets are available starting at $19 with no food or beverage minimum. Tickets and more information are available at www.thegreenroom42.com
