A MARCH IS CABARET MONTH EVENT
Bistro Award winner Rebecca Spencer will be joined by her longtime Music Director Philip Fortenberry as they debut FROM BROADWAY TO LAS VEGAS at the historicMcPHERSON OPERA HOUSE(221-223 South Main Street, McPherson, KS - 620-241-1952) on Saturday, March 19th at 7:00 pm. The concert will feature both artists, with Rebecca as vocalist and Philip as concert pianist. Rebecca and Philip's signature style creates a musical conversation featuring two voices, which combined reflect a contemporary expression of the art song in its purest form. Their concerts take on a life of their own, as inspired song cycles, and the alluring romantic interplay between the two is shared with a sneaky sense of humor sprinkled throughout. The show breathes new life into the American songbook in their trademark style, introducing musical passages and suites inspired by composers including Jerry Herman, Stephen Flaherty, Marvin Hamlisch, Frank Wildhorn, Andrew Lloyd Webber, as well as new works by Keith Thompson. Collectively, their performance careers span over 50 years, from Carnegie Hall to the Kennedy Center, from Lincoln Center to the Liberace Museum, and from Broadway to Las Vegas, and they have worked first hand with many of today's Broadway composers on first cast recordings and productions. Tickets are $20-$30.
