RENEE KATZ SINGS Irving Berlin: LOST IN HIS ARMS – OCTOBER 19 AT 7PM

This performance will also be livestreamed. For tickets and more information, click here.

“The Most Heartwarming Show of the Year” is how Times Square Chronicles’ Jacqueline Parker describes Renee Katz Sings Irving Berlin: Lost In His Arms in her recent column “Top Cabaret Artists of 2024.” And now Renee, the multiple MAC and BroadwayWorld Award-nominated cabaret artist, who has often been compared to the late Barbara Cook, reunites with critically-acclaimed arranger and musical director Christopher Marlowe in celebration of the release of their highly regarded new album with her 54 Below debut.

The album combines Berlin’s timeless standards with a special focus on his earlier work and some of his rarer gems, together with Renee’s singular sound, and deeply personal perspective, of which Steven Mosher of BroadwayWorld wrote “she does a deep dive of emotions into the lyrics accompanying each melody.” The album aims to shine a unique spotlight on one of our greatest songwriters, while also illuminating his Jewish heritage as an immigrant and a proud American. Marlowe, who is best known for his unforgettable collaboration and recordings with the iconic Nancy LaMott, has made each of these Berlin classics vibrant and immediate.

Along with Marlowe, Renee is joined by the extremely talented Rex Benincasa on drums and Ritt Henn on bass, ukulele and vocals. The performance is directed by multi-award winning cabaret artist Jeff Harnar, who will also be making a special guest appearance. For no matter how complex the world gets, Berlin’s messages remain accessible, universal, and forever timely; as in this show, Irving Berlin speaks his truth, which Renee believes, is everyone’s truth.

Phillip Officer SALUTES Mabel Mercer: YOU FASCINATE ME SO – OCTOBER 24 AT 9:30PM

“A master of lyric precision. A textbook example in pop understatement.” – The New York Times

No understanding of the American popular song is complete without the knowledge of the legendary Mabel Mercer and her influence on lyric interpretation. Her perfect diction and honest approach to lyrics attracted many of America’s rising singers to emulate her style: Frank Sinatra, Lena Horne, Tony Bennett, Bobby Short, Peggy Lee, and Nat King Cole.  What they learned from Mercer transformed American culture. Tin Pan Alley was expanding its trunk of tunesmiths to include Broadway’s brightest composing stars: Cole Porter, George & Ira Gershwin, Richard Rodgers & Oscar Hammerstein, Cy Coleman & Carolyn Leigh. The chic supper clubs and smokey saloons were a perfect playground for the intimate art of cabaret. Phillip Officer has always had the ability to make one feel that he’s singing a particular song only to you. That is the magic of Phillip Officer — a wizard of musical words. Now, he brings his hit Mabel Mercer show, You Fascinate Me So, to 54 Below!
