MARCUS SIMEONE MOVES SHOW UPTOWN TO MAMA'S

After debuting his newest show, "Moon Over Brooklyn," at JUDY'S CHELSEA (169 Eighth Avenue, NYC - 212-929-5410 - http://www.judyschelsea.com/) in November, Marcus Simeone will be bringing the show uptown to DON'T TELL MAMA (343 West 46th Street, NYC - 212-757-0788 - http://www.donttellmama.com/). Featuring guest musical director Tedd Firth, Marco Brehm on bass, and special guest Eva Ladas, "Moon Over Brooklyn" is scheduled for two special dates on Sunday, December 29th at 3:00 pm and Monday, December 30th at 7:30 pm. The show is directed by Lina Koutrakos. There will be a $15 music charge and 2-drink minimum.

In his new show, Marcus will lend his haunting, multi-octave voice to a plethora of contemporary composers including: Tom Andersen, John Bucchino, Tim Di Pasqua, Dick Gallagher, Lina Koutrakos, Nan Selle and Shelly Markham as well as legendary songwriters like Burt Bacharach, Maltby & Shire, Henry Mancini, Johnny Mercer, Ivor Novello and Rodgers & Hammerstein.

Acclaimed for his heartfelt interpretations of contemporary and standard songs, the new show will celebrate passages of life and love that are part of our landscape as seen through the eyes of this dreamer and his muse. Since his debut two years ago at DON'T TELL MAMA, Marcus has been embraced by many luminaries and numerous new fans from the cabaret and theater community for his unique vocal abilities, interpretive skills and star-quality stage presence. He was recently honored by the Manhattan Association of Cabarets & Clubs (MAC), receiving his first MAC nomination as Outstanding Male Vocalist in 2002. He is also the winner of the 2002 Cabaret Hotline male vocalist award.

A veteran jazz/R&B/pop singer for over ten years with various bands in the Tri-state area, Brooklyn-born Marcus has built a following of devoted fans touched by his evocative interpretations of songs from the heart. Frequently compared to Johnny Mathis and Marc Anthony, he was a finalist on "Star Search" and appeared on NBC-TV's "Showtime at The Apollo."
