This is a cabaret-style show featuring tunes of many different genres including Broadway, pop, and jazz.

Overall, this show will be both hilarious and heartfelt, with music that can be enjoyed by everyone! Stephanie Reuning-Scherer and Declan Smith will be joined by a full band including two keyboards, bass & drums.

Declan Smith is sixteen years old and a junior at Conard High School who has been performing his whole life. His first play ever was at a Playhouse on Park summer camp when he was eight, and he's so happy to be back! He was recently seen as Robert in The Drowsy Chaperone and as Algernon in The Importance of Being Earnest on the Conard Stages. He loved playing Warner in Legally Blondewith West Hartford Summer Arts Festival where he also shared the stage with Stephanie. Declan is excited to be performing his second cabaret with Stephanie after their show Crazier Than You which they performed at Playhouse in 2019.
