Hailed as an 'amazing triple threat' by The New York Times, two-time Tony Award-winning actress, singer and dancer Sutton Foster has dazzled audiences on Broadway with her powerful soprano, fantastic footwork and sparkling stage presence. Presented by Actors Theatre of Indiana (ATI), this luminous talent appears for the first time at The Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel, Indiana tonight, October 5, 2013 at 8 p.m., in a spectacular evening of Broadway showstoppers and tender cabaret-style ballads.
Sutton Foster may be a Tony-Award winning Broadway Musical Theatre darling, but if her opening-night show this past Wednesday at Café Carlyle (which launched her current three-week run until September 28) is the best she can do, she's far from also being considered a nightclub/cabaret diva.
Continuing through September 28, two-time Tony winner Sutton Foster returns to the Cafe Carlyle (The Carlyle Hotel - 35 East 76th Street at Madison Avenue) for a series of concert performances. The shows feature musical direction by Michael Rafter. BroadwayWorld brings you photos from the special concert event below!
