NYC: 20TH CENTURY GIRL: THE LOIS MORTON SONGBOOK TODAY AT 5:00 PM
20th Century Girl: The Lois Morton Songbook will be performed at DON'T TELL MAMA (343 West 46th Street, NYC - 212-757-0788 - ) on Saturday, June 15th at 5:00 pm. This original musical revue features an ensemble cast that includes Kim Grogg, Mary Lahti, Sidney Myer & Georga Osborne. Musical director is Paul Greenwood at the piano. Lois Morton began writing songs in the late sixties, and at the suggestion of Pete Seeger, had several topical songs published in Broadside Magazine. After a long hiatus, which included raising a family, teaching, writing children's books and ESL textbooks, and directing a continuing education program at the YWCA, Lois returned to songwriting in 1996. At first, having retired to care for her husband who had Alzheimer's, she wrote to express her profound sorrow and loss. After a time, she rediscovered the funny side of life and currently focuses on humorous songs of social commentary in Gilbert & Sullivan/Tom Lehrer style. Lois' multicultural repertoire includes songs in several languages, with a special emphasis on French and the songs of Edith Piaf. There is a $15 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.
