Tovah Feldshuh Postpones Engagement At Feinstein's At The Nikko

Due to an unforeseen scheduling conflict, Tovah Feldshuh-the acclaimed star of television, stage, and film-has postponed her engagement of Tovah is LEONA! Originally scheduled to take place on June 7 & 8, 2019, the engagement will now take place on Friday, September 20 (8 p.m.) and Saturday, September 21 (8 p.m.).

Featuring highlights from the new Broadway-bound musical, Queen of Mean, based on the New York Times best-selling biography of Leona Helmsley by Ransdell Pierson, Tovah is LEONA! will also feature great American Standards they've always dreamed of hearing Leona Helmsley sing. Tovah is LEONA! sings and stings about everything from her meteoric rise from office temp to Queen of the Palace, to her real estate rival Donald Trump. So "Harry" on down to Feinstein's at the Nikko for an evening of fun, frolic, and foreclosure!

Tovah is LEONA! features music by Ron Passaro and lyrics by David Lee and Alex Lippard from their musical, Queen of Mean. The book for Tovah is LEONA! was created by Ms. Feldshuh, musical director and arranger James Bassi, and director Jeff Harnar.

Tovah Feldshuh is a six-time Emmy and Tony Award nominee and has been awarded three honorary Doctorates of Humane Letters. Additionally, for her theatre work, she has won four Drama Desk Awards, four Outer Critics Circle Awards, three Drama-Logues, the Helen Hayes and Lucille Lortel Awards for Best Actress, an Obie, and the Theatre World Awards. She has just been nominated for a MAC award as Best Celebrity Artist for Tovah is LEONA!

Tovah embodies this New York name with every fiber of her being," While Bistroawards.com hails her as a "Masterful actress...mesmerizing and fearless."

Tovah is a loving wife of Andrew H. Levy, Esq. and mother of Brandon married to Jami, Amanda married to Joel and grandmother to one astonishing newborn grandson, Rafael.
