PALM SPRINGS, CA: RON COHN CELEBRATES HIS BIRTHDAY WITH "LIVE AND LET LIVE!"

Former New Yorker and now local Palm Springs performer Ron Cohn will celebrate his birthday with "Live & Let Live: A Birthday Show!", dedicated to his favorite composer, Cole Porter at theTHE ARTHUR NEWMAN THEATRE at the JOSLYN CENTER (73-750 Catalina Way, Palm Desert, CA - TKTS: 760-325-2731) on Sunday, August 17th at 2:00 pm. He will be joined by musical director Christopher Marlowe and presented by Les Michaels Life Is A Cabaret Sundays In Summer Series. Ron has been performing his own cabaret show, at least annually, for many years, either here in the desert or back East where he has cabaret connections to New York City and Chicago as both a performer and a director of others shows, in addition to handling their bookings, press and publicity. His client list is virtually a 'who's who' in the world of cabaret. One of Ron's many talents is his ability to convey a story for each song about the show, composer, or stars associated with the song - almost like a history lesson for the audience who are often surprised by some of the juicy details. Ron's accompanist is much sought-after in cabaret circles, Christopher Marlowe, who is known for his 11-year association with singer Nancy LaMott until her passing in 1995. He also conducted for Kathie Lee Gifford for over 6 years and for Bernadette Peter's pre-Broadway one-woman show. He is now a permanent resident of Palm Springs. There is an $11 cash cover.
