NYC: CAROL SHEDLIN: CHILD OF THE '30S - ENCORE PERFORMANCES
Carol Shedlin celebrates her legacy as a Child of the '30s in her newest cabaret show at DON'T TELL MAMA (343 West 46th Street, NYC - 212-757-0788) with two encore performances of her " Child of the '30s" show on Tuesday, March 10th & Monday, March 16th, both at 7:00 pm. She is joined by musical director Jon Delfin at the piano and Boots Maleson on bass. Carol is thrilled to present her sophisticated evening of songs from the 1930s, filled with the romance of that black-and-white, cut-on-the-bias, Art Deco world of "Let's Pretend". Carol sings a collection of often offbeat and quirky (but always beguiling) period tunes, and entertains with her recollections about special moments from her somewhat eccentric, early childhood. Celebrating more than twenty years of "impeccable musical taste," Carol continues her tradition of creating cabaret evenings featuring an intriguing song list, mixing old favorites with lesser-known rarities. Director: Aaron Morishita, There is a $12 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.

NYC: MARY FOSTER CONKLIN AT THE ZINC BAR
Cabaret/ Jazz vocalist Mary Foster Conklin will perform at ZINC BAR (82 West 3rd Street, NYC - 212-477-9462) on Monday, March 16th at 7:00 pm. She is joined by John diMartino - piano; Ed Howard - bass; and Shinnosuke Takahashi - drums. Mary sample some of the songs from the her latest recording and also serve up some celebrations of Spring. Conklin has appeared in theatres, jazz clubs, cabarets and even fire escapes in the metropolitan New York area and throughout the United States and Canada. A New Jersey native who came to New York to pursue theatre work, her transformation from actor to jazz singer began when she joined drummer/ composer Art Lillard's 15-piece Heavenly Band and her song selections naturally shifted from show tunes to blues, Latin and bebop. As a leader, her sets are a mix of contemporary material and standards, with an emphasis on the lesser known treasures of the Great American Songbook. In New York, Conklin's talents have earned her a place on the stages of The Blue Note, Zinc Bar, Iridium, Birdland, Jazz at the Kitano, the Metropolitan Room and the Stage 72. She can also be seen from time to time singing off various fire escapes as The Lady in the Red Dress with the Renegade Cabaret. Her latest project is her CD, LIFE IS A BITCH - a tribute to poet/lyricist Fran Landesman, (best known for "Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most" and "The Ballad of the Sad Young Men"). There is a $10 cover. CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE MEMBER EVENTcopyright 2015 - See cabaret listings from all over the world at CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE
