Juliet Ewing: Rise Up Singing - The Music of George Gershwin at Don't Tell Mama

In an encore performance of her solo cabaret debut, Juliet Ewing leads us on a journey through the music of George Gershwin via new arrangements by Ron Drotos. Originally performed to sold-out crowds at Don’t Tell Mama on April 11, June 19, and November 17, 2024, Ewing sings and swings to Gershwin’s most famous and beloved songs, including “I’ve Got a Crush on You,” “Someone to Watch Over Me,” “They Can’t Take That  Away From Me,” and other gems. Rise Up Singing - The Music of George Gershwin is directed by Lina Koutrakos, with musical director Ron Drotos on piano, Michael O’Brien on bass, Daniel Glass on drums, and special guest Patrick Boyd.

“There was…the golden voice and fine dramatic skill of diva Juliet Ewing…and moments that come rarely in cabaret and make attending all shows worthwhile. Bravo.” ~ Bart Greenberg, Cabaret Scenes
