NYS: THE PATRIOTIC AND POLITICAL SONGS OF GERSHWIN
Broadway veteran singer/actor Bill Carmichael returns to The MAINSTAGE AT FORT SALEM THEATER (11 East Broadway, Salem, NY - 518-854-9200) on Saturday, November 3rd at 8:00 pm. This year, for his annual musical visit, he is piggy-backing on the presidential election as he sings patriotic, political, and protest songs penned by George and Ira Gershwin. Carmichael began his career in the original New York cast of the ever-changing satirical revue, Forbidden Broadway, and went on to appear on the Great White Way in Cats, Peter Pan, Ragtime, Les Miserables, and the original cast of the Abba hit, Mamma Mia! Creating cabarets since 2009 with Fort Salem's artistic director, Jay Kerr, the pair has reprised the Salem shows at the Vergennes (VT) Opera House to sell-out crowds. This past summer, Carmichael co-starred on Fort Salem's Mainstage in Significant Others. Carmichael emphasizes that the Fort Salem show will be light and non-partisan in nature. Interspersed among the patriotic and political, songs will include "Our Love Is Here to Stay," "Embraceable You," "Nice Work If You Can Get It," and "A Foggy Day." The $25 ticket includes a $6 credit toward coffee and dessert catered by Norene and Fred's of Salem. Because seating is limited, reservations are strongly suggested.
