Photos: Shana Farr Presents BERNSTEIN TO SONDHEIM: THE BARBARA COOK SONGBOOK at Urban Stages

Cabaret artist Shana Farr is one of the industry's bright lights, an artist who is respected by the community and appreciated by the audiences.  Ms. Farr was one of the artists chosen to present a performance at the annual WINTER RHYTHMS that plays Urban Stages.  On December 16th, the penultimate day of WINTER RHYTHMS 2023, Ms. Farr performed her musical cabaret BERNSTEIN TO SONDHEIM: THE Barbara Cook SONGBOOK and when Conor Weiss emailed over his photos of the occasion, he included one simple and powerful message:  "HOLY SH*T!  SHE'S AMAZING!!!"  Farr's vivacity and star quality are perfectly captured in Conor's photos, to be seen below.

WINTER RHYTHMS has one day left - today, December 17th.  There are two shows - Kenny Passarelli & Amy Loper in "Forever is Now: A Story of Love, Music & Transformation" will play at 3 pm and Tom Toce Presents "Songs of Hope VI" will play at 7 pm.  See their event descriptions on the Urban Stages website HERE.
