Lucille Carr-Kaffashan Returns to Don't Tell Mama with "Young @ Heart"

Along with her most prized musical asset, talented musical director and accompanist, David Brunetti, Lucille returns to DON'T TELL MAMA (343 West 46th Street, NYC - 1-212-757-0788 - http://www.donttellmama.com/) with her critically acclaimed show "Young @ Heart," for four performances: Saturday, October 4th at 4:30 pm, Thursday, October 9th at 6 pm, Thursday, October 16th at 6 pm, and Saturday, October 25th at 4:30 pm. There is a $12 music charge ($6 for MAC members and for CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE MEMBERS) and a 2-drink minimum.

Throughout the spring of this year, Lucille Carr-Kaffashan presented "Young @ Heart," to audiences in both New York City and New Hope, PA. In celebration of NYC Cabaret Convention month, she is bringing the popular show back to Don't Tell Mama in October.

"Young @ Heart" contains an eclectic mix of standard and contemporary songs that reflect Lucille's musical journeys over the years. The song list includes works of celebrated songwriting teams such as Rodgers & Hammerstein, Maltby & Shire, Comden & Green, and Bricusse & Mancini, along with those of singer-songwriters such as Judy Collins, James Taylor, and Jacques Brel.

A native of Long Island, New York, Lucille grew up listening to the stories woven by folk music, operatic arias, and musical theater songs. Drawn to expressive voices, beautiful melodies and heartfelt lyrics, Lucille has found her artistic home on the cabaret stage. While her previous voice training was primarily classical, with a focus on Italian and French arias and art songs, her cabaret work celebrates the Great American Songbookãboth classic and contemporaryãand she enjoys including in each program at least one French or Italian song in order to reveal the emotional colors that can be expressed in these languages.

Lucille performed for many years in regional theater productions before developing her first cabaret act in 1999. Her 2001/2002 cabaret outing, the critically acclaimed "On My Way To You," had a successful run at both Don't Tell Mama in New York City and The Cabaret at Odette's in New Hope, PA. She has presented four different cabaret shows in New York City and Pennsylvania, has been a featured performer at the Regents Club in NYC, and has performed in a number of special cabaret productions including the Odette's 15th Anniversary Show and the 13th Annual TeddyCare Show.
