Manda Kemp to Perform I DON'T NEED A MAP at The Gardenia

By:

Buckle up! In "I Don't Need A Map", Manda Kemp will take you on a wildly eclectic musical tour, reflecting on her colorfully convoluted personal journey and the unexpected forks, detours, and twists that led to her solo debut. Through a set of contemporary Broadway, pop, jazz, and rock as diverse as Manda's experiences, "I Don't Need A Map" looks at the notion of "best laid plans"... and laughs. Join her for the ride on February 23rd at The Gardenia in Los Angeles!

In her formative years, Manda trained at the prestigious Idyllwild Arts Academy, sang with a professional choir, and performed in numerous theatrical productions in her native San Francisco Bay Area. Before shifting gears to study Communications at Northwestern University, she even spent a summer sampling a different kind of singing - rock - at Paul McCartney's Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts in the U.K. Manda ultimately chose a career in Marketing-until 2015, when she appeared in several musical revues at San Francisco's Marines Memorial Theatre. In 2016, Manda made her cabaret debut at Society Cabaret San Francisco with the acclaimed two-woman show, "A Blonde And A Redhead Walk Into A Bar". Her new path - and second career - has brought her to Los Angeles, where she will debut her solo show. "I Don't Need A Map", with Musical Director Mike Farrell at The Gardenia on February 23rd.

The show begins at 9PM, with doors & dinner seating opening at 7PM.
