CABARET

Laurie Beechman Theater


"On 4 magical nights, 30 incredible women will pay tribute to 1 great songwriter in The Amanda McBroom Project, directed by Eric Michael Gillett, with musical direction by Jeff Cubeta. The Laurie Beechman Theatre will host a rotating cast of phenomenal theatrical and cabaret talent as they join together to sing the songs of Amanda McBroom in four unique evenings celebrating the career and music of one of the country's best-loved artists. Don't miss it!"

This is a performance space below a restaurant. It will include dinner, cocktails, and a show.

We stumbled into a great evening.  We have a San Antonio friend who has a New York City friend who was appearing as one of the singers in a cabaret show featuring Amanda McBroom songs.

The show we saw had 30 wonderful women singers who presented a really good show.  The singers were all performers on and off Broadway.

The small group at our table included a former Tony Award winner and her husband who is a playwright and actor.  We had cabaret and theater talents at our table watching their friends, other cabaret and theater talents performing.  Again, it was a New York evening.  Tourist up at street level had no idea what was going on under the West Bank Cafe.
