Lorna Dallas: Snapshots

Lorna Dallas, one of cabaret’s most acclaimed and cherished artists and the recipient of a special 2020 New York Bistro Award for “Consummate Cabaret Artistry” brings her latest musical offering, “Snapshots” to Crazy Coqs for two nights only.

“Snapshots” is yet another dazzling display of Ms. Dallas’ formidable prowess as both an actress and a vocalist, interspersing soaring song with personal stories (snapshots) from her life and career on both sides of the Atlantic. Musically, the program is diverse and daring, offering well known gems along with rarities from some of the finest songwriters on either shore: Marvin Hamlisch, Kander and Ebb, Stephen Sondheim, Maury Yeston and Jerry Herman. And, because she has been hailed as one of his foremost interpreters, Ivor Novello.

The evening has been devised by her award-winning American collaborators, director Barry Kleinbort and musical director Christopher Denny (who also serves as the show’s dexterous accompanist.) “Snapshots” is continuing musical proof of Ms. Dallas’ dedication to “consummate cabaret artistry” and should not be missed.

Lorna’s other date at Crazy Coqs is on July 23rd:https://www.brasseriezedel.com/events/lorna-dallas-snapshots-comparing-notes-post-show-interview-with-edward-seckerson/?instance_id=994536
