Photos: Gerrilyn Sohn's TIMELESS: A TRIBUTE TO BERNADETTE PETERS at Don't Tell Mama

Two-time MAC Award nominee Gerrilyn Sohn debuted her newest show, Timeless: A Tribute to Bernadette Peters on April 19 at Don't Tell Mama. She returns to the Midtown Manhattan hotspot on May 2 at 4 pm (tickets are already sold out) and May 11 at 7 pm (there are a few remaining tickets available here; get them while you can).

BroadwayWorld's Stephen Mosher writes of the new show, "For her new hour-long cabaret show (ideal length, thank you!), Ms. Sohn covers Bernadette Peters' career and life in small chapters relating to her work on stage, her television appearances, her movie roles, the recording booth, and concert stages, with drive-bys that touch on her life as a toddler thespian, an animal advocate, and a woman in love.  Sohn and director Lennie Watts have crafted a script filled with facts and histories, some that the public at large would know (film and television roles), others that theater aficionados have committed to memory (though the exact number of Peters’ Broadway shows was eye-opening), and others that came as a complete surprise (the story of how she met her husband is hilarious).  The anecdotes and trivia are peppered with musical performances one would, quite naturally, expect (like winning opening number “Broadway Baby”) and others that lean into revelation, like evening highlight “Other Lady.”   For these musical numbers, Musical Director Tracy Stark has kept Sohn’s arrangements simple and straightforward, faithful to Peter’s original treatments, maybe as a tribute to Bernadette or perhaps to allow Gerrilyn Sohn a chance to showcase her acting skills."
