Chris Autore celebrates 75 years in show business with an encore of his NYC solo cabaret debut, highlighting music from 1950 to the present day. Look At Me Now features a vibrant mix of pop and Broadway hits, backed by a three piece band led by Ike Reeves on piano, with Sean Conly on bass and Ray Marchica on drums. Directed by Geoff Stoner.

Autore shares stories of his life and career, beginning in 1950, when, at the age of five, he was cast in the Horn and Hardart Children’s Hour, broadcast from NBC Studios. He performed on the show for two years in the company of Tallulah Bankhead, Connie Francis, Rosemary Clooney, Eddie Fisher, Bernadette Peters, and Carol King. Look At Me Now, which premiered to a sold-out crowd on November 5 at Don’t Tell Mama, shines a light on the life of a musician who navigated and survived the challenges of the music industry.

Cast and Creative Team for Chris Autore: Look At Me Now at Don't Tell Mama

Cast

Chris Autore
Vocalist
Chris Autore, born in Connecticut, was surrounded by music from an early age, due in part to his mandolin-playing father and his grandmother who taught him to sing in Italian. At the age of five, he was cast in the Horn and Hardart Children’s Hour, broadcast from NBC Studios. At six years old, he sang “Because of You” with Tony Bennett at the Shubert Theater in New Haven, Connecticut. He later studied dance, piano, and attended music classes at Carnegie Hall. After serving in the U.S. Air Force, Autore fell in love again with the arts of dance, piano, vocals, and design, leading to a move to NYC in the late 1960s, and to Fort Lauderdale in 1986. Career highlights include performing at Grossinger’s in the Catskills, 1971-73, an engagement at Merv Griffin’s Resorts International, Atlantic City, and as the headliner at the World Famous Jockey Club in Miami in 1986. Prior to making his NYC solo cabaret debut on November 5, 2025, Autore worked as the weekend performer at Maggiano’s in Boca Raton for 16 years.
