Photos: Lucille Carr-Kaffashan UNWRITTEN at Don't Tell Mama
Female Singer-Songwriters of the 21st Century
Award winning vocalist Lucille Carr-Kaffashan returned to her artistic homebase, the Midtown Manhattan cabaret club Don't Tell Mama, with the second leg of her music series 3 SEASONS OF SINGER-SONGWRITERS. This chapter in the series is titled UNWRITTEN and focuses on the music of 21st century women like Taylor Swift, Kacey Musgraves, Meghan Trainor and more. Carr-Kaffashan played the iconic club on July 20th and August 13th in this production directed by David Hilder and Musical Directed by Jeff Cubeta. Joining Lucille and pianist Cubeta on the stage were Bassist Matt Scharfglass and Guitarist Sean Harkness.
Broadway World Cabaret photographer Conor Weiss was on hand with his camera to document the proceedings and the regularly stoic shutterbug had much praise for the program.
