"AN
EVENING WITH DOUG ANDERSON" at ODETTE'S
Doug
Anderson, a cabaret favorite in New York and Philadelphia, makes his
first appearance at THE CABARET at Odette's (South River Road, New
Hope, PA - 215-862-3000 - http://www.odettes.com/)
on two Sundays, April 6th and 13th, both shows at 7:30 pm. Musical
Director is Greg Wilder with Andrew Nelson on bass. "AN EVENING WITH
DOUG ANDERSON" is a mix of standards from the Popular American Songbook,
Broadway showstoppers, and an eclectic blend of songs by Stephen Sondheim,
Noel Coward, Dave Frishberg, Judy Collins and Comden & Green.
Mr. Anderson, best known
as a comic singer, constructs his cabaret performances in an interactive,
semi-improvised style wielding his special brand of dry wit with
broad humor. He has appeared Off-Broadway, on HBO's Comedy Channel,
in PBS's Great Performances series ("Sondheim at Carnegie Hall"),
and in the Mabel Mercer Cabaret Convention at Town Hall in New York
City.
Doug created and performed
a dozen shows in all the New York City cabarets before relocating
to Philadelphia in 2000. Putting his solo club work on hold, he returned
to theater in Stephen Sondheim's "Passion" at the Wilma Theatre in
2001. He also appeared in an original Broadway revue for the Walnut
Street Theater, at the Act II Playhouse, at the Shubin Theater, and
in "Holiday Follies at the Arden" with his creative partner Todd Waddington.
Doug also teaches classes in The Art of Cabaret at the Wilma, and
privately with Mr. Waddington.
