bergenPAC Goes Back to the '80's with JESSIE'S GIRL 7/7
Jessie's Girl is New York City's ultimate '80's tribute, playing a sold out Back To The Eighties Show every Saturday night at Le Poisson Rouge in Greenwich Village. Their primary line-up includes a team of NYC's top rock and pop vocalists: up-and-coming superstar Jenna O'Gara, Off-Broadway's Chris Hall, and renowned "Sting" impersonator Mark Rinzel. They are backed by one of the tightest bands in the city comprised of 20-plus year veterans: Eric Presti, on guitar, Sky on keys, Drew Mortali on bass and Michael Maenza on drums.
The band has performed with a handful of the '80's icons that made their music famous to begin with, including Bret Michaels, MC Hammer, Colin Hay (Men At Work), Tiffany, Debbie Gibson, Taylor Dane, Howard Jones, Tone Loc and Rob Base.
Founded in 2003, the 1,367-seat Bergen Performing Arts Center, or bergenPAC, is the area's cultural mecca. Housed in a historic Art Deco-style theater boasting one of the finest acoustic halls in the United States, bergenPAC attracts a stellar roster of world-class entertainment. The jewel in our crown is The Performing Arts School at bergenPAC - the innovative, educational performing arts initiative that, through programs, classes, outreach, school shows, and main theater presented shows, reach more than 30,000 students and community youth annually. The Performing Arts School provides community youth, age 2 months to 21 years, with unique, "hands-on" training in music, dance and theater by industry professionals. It is through the ongoing generosity of sponsors, donors, members, and patrons that the not-for-profit 501 (c)(3) corporation bergenPAC and The Performing Arts School are able to thrive and enrich our community.
