TODAY IN NYC: MILLA ILIEVA IN "TEN! TEN! TEN!" AT FEINSTEIN'S
Award-winning jazz/cabaret artist Milla Ilieva will bring her new show "Ten! Ten! Ten!" toFEINSTEIN'S at the Regency Hotel (540 Park Avenue, NYC - 212-339-4095) for a one-night-only evening on Sunday, October 10th at 8:30 pm. The evening will feature Paul Trueblood as musical director along with Jared Egan on double bass and James Brennan as director. Milla will bring her signature saucy and sophisticated performance style to songs as different as Vernon Duke's "I Like the Likes of You" and "Better" by Ed Kleban to Rodgers & Hart's "Funny Valentine" and a stirring rendition of "Losing My Mind" and "Thinking of You" by Stephen Sondheim and Harry Ruby & Bert Kalmar respectively. Milla will dedicate "Ten!Ten!Ten!" in memory of her former director, Margery Beddow, who passed away earlier this year. Miss Beddow was Bob Fosse's assistant and performed in several of his shows, served as an understudy to Gwen Verdon and wrote what has been hailed as the quintessential book on Mr. Fosse, "Bob Fosse's Broadway." A Juilliard alum, Milla Ilieva was the recipient of the 2006 Bistro Award and a two-time Nightlife Award finalist. She has performed in opera and in concerts throughout the USA, France and Japan, and has devoted herself professionally to cabaret since 1992 when she debuted at Danny's Skylight Room in "An Earful of Music." In 1999 she began performing her critically acclaimed show "Hidden Voices" (with musical director Jeffrey Chappell) at Don't Tell Mama where it was extended several times. There is a $30-$50 cover plus a $25 food/drink minimum.copyright 2010 - CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE - POST YOUR COMMENTS BELOW
