BROADWAY BY THE YEAR SERIES INCLUDES STARS OF CABARET & BROADWAY


Last show is Monday, June 10th at THE TOWN HALL features shows of 1964

Scott Siegel, Producer, Writer & Host of "Broadway by the Year" has announced the fourth show, "The Broadway Musicals of 1964," to be presented at THE TOWN HALL (123 West 43rd Street, NYC - http://www.the-townhall-nyc.org/) on June 10th that overflows with cabaret performers. In that show he will feature Liz Callaway, Tom Andersen, Norm Lewis, Alix Korey, Sharon McNight, Richard Skipper, Steven Brinberg, Barbara Fasano and Craig Rubano. Siegel is proud to say that he has, at one time or another, seen every single one of the folks who are cast (so far) in the 1964 show on a cabaret stage.

Tickets, Siegel noted, are limited. The price of tickets is $30 (all the $35 seats are sold out). The best (and least expensive) way to get those seats, he suggests, it to go to the TOWN HALL box office between noon and 6 pm any day but Sunday to purchase tickets directly. Otherwise, call TicketMaster at 212-307-4100.

Here's some good news for the cabaret community: This year's first "Broadway by the Year" show at Town Hall, "The Broadway Musicals of 1933," has just been released on CD by Bayview Records. The show, which featured cabaret performer Mark Coffin, has, as of Friday, May 10th, shot to NUMBER ONE on the http://www.Footlight.com/ best-seller list! Mr. Coffin was given a personal rave by Stephen Holden of the NY Times for his performance in that show, which has been beautifully preserved on the new CD. Also starring in that show (and on the CD) are theater performers who have also performed in cabaret: Mary Testa, Anne Runolfsson, and George Dvorsky. Siegel says," Only Mary Bond Davis did not, to my knowledge, perform in a cabaret act (and I might have just missed that in her bio)."

So, congratulations to the cabaret community and at least four of its members for making it to number one on the only theater/cabaret CD best-seller list of its kind.

Scott, along with his wife Barbara Siegel, review cabaret, film and theater on their syndicated radio heard on over 100 stations in the USA, as well as on the websites http://www.theatermania.com/ and http://www.cabarethotlineonline.com/.
