This fall actress and singer Emily Bergl, star of Broadway, films, and 'Desperate Housewives,' garnered raves from critics and sold out audiences for her debut cabaret at the Oak Room. Stephen Holden of the NY Times declared Ms. Bergl to be 'a natural stage entertainer who suggests a multiple exposure of Carol Burnett, Bette Midler and Madonna, without really resembling any of them' and 'a gust of fresh air that could knock you off your feet.' By popular demand, Ms. Bergl will reprise her cabaret show, 'Kidding on the Square,' for five Monday nights only, November 21 through December 19 at the Oak Room at the Algonquin Hotel.
