in November and December with her acclaimed show "First Person Singular."

16th at 5:30 pm; Thursday, December 5th at 8:00 pm; and Saturday,
December 7th at 5:00 pm. Ms. Sampson is once again teamed with MAC
and Bistro Award-winning musical director and arranger David Maiocco.
Karen Mack, four-time MAC award winner for performance and songwriting,
serves as director for the production. There is a $10 cover and a
2-drink minimum.
For this return engagement,
each performance will feature a different guest singer, including
Carolyn Montgomery on November 7th, Scott Coulter on December 5th
and Jenna Robinson on December 7th (November 16th guest to be announced).
When it first ran in May
of this year, "First Person Singular" was well-received by audiences
and critics alike. In the show Ms. Sampson presents a mix of standards
and contemporary original works. The evening showcases a wide array
of songwriters, including Randy Newman, Johnny Burke & Jimmy Van Heusen,
Dar Williams, Marcy Heisler & Zina Goldrich, Donald Fagan, Rodgers
& Hammerstein, and Tim DiPasqua. Ms. Sampson also performs an original
song of her own, "First Person Singular," which aptly lends its name
for the title and which helped to provide the initial inspiration
for the show (lyrics by Ms. Sampson, music by Ms. Sampson & David
Maiocco).
