Jazz legend Annie Ross continues her unprecedented, record-breaking, multi-year run at THE METROPOLITAN ROOM (34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440), every Tuesday night at 9:30 pm. Ms. Ross has been an abundant contributor to the art of jazz for over 50 years. Born in the UK, she has been a permanent resident of the USA for many years and a US citizen since 2001.

A founding member of Lambert, Hendricks and Ross, considered the greatest jazz vocal ensemble of all time, her influence is present in all subsequent practitioners of vocalese.

NYC: 'EN AVANT!' THE TENNESSEE WILLIAMS EXPERIENCE
William Shuman's 'En Avant!' will be performed on TuesdayS, August 12th, 19th & 26th at 7:00 pm at STAGE 72 (158 West 72nd Street, NYC - 212-362-2590). Winner of 2013 New York International Fringe Festival "Overall Excellence Award for Solo Performance", 'En Avant! An Evening with Tennessee Williams' is a highly personal one-man play that explores the family dynamic, the seminal work, the most important lovers and the demons that shaped the development of the man considered by many to be America's greatest playwright. Tennessee Williams was American Theatre for much of the 20th century. And though many of his master works continue to be produced, the legacy of the man himself is slowly being lost. Written and performed by William Shuman, En Avant! provides a unique view into the heart and mind of this admittedly "wounded man". Call for cover/minimum information.

Like a rock and roll Mark Twain, Rex Smith takes you on a wild and fascinating, sometimes dramatic, yet very hilarious, musical story-telling journey. From the crazy antics of rock and roll, his excitement and pressures behind a six-album deal as a number one platinum recording artist with Columbia Records, his two years opening for Ted Nugent, his last concert with Lynard Skynard before their plane crash (and what really happened), what lead Rex to become an overnight sensation as Teen Idol that took him around the world, and the despair that came with the title; his television roles on Sooner Or Later, Street Hawk, Solid Gold, As The World Turns, and The Daredevil; and most notable, his sudden rise to Broadway, including antics with Kevin Kline and Linda Ronstadt during The Pirates of Penzance and receiving the coveted Theatre World Award, leading to Broadway shows with Grease, Grand Hotel, Annie Get Your Gun, The Scarlet Pimpernel, Kiss Me Kate, and Sunset Boulevard ... to where he met his 16 year old son, Brandon, for the first time ... a son he never knew he had. There is a $30 - $35 - $40 - $60 cover plus a $25 food/drink minimum.
