Ann Hampton Callaway to Perform at Stoneham Theatre

Jazz and cabaret star, Ann Hampton Callaway, will appear in a special solo performance on Saturday, January 12th, at 8:00 pm at the STONEHAM THEATRE (395 Main Street, Stoneham, MA - 781-279-2200). Callaway was nominated for a Tony Award in 2000 for her starring role in the Broadway musical hit, "Swing," and has appeared as a special guest artist with Keith Lockhart and the Boston Pops at Tanglewood and Carnegie Hall and on national television. Her composition, "At the Same Time," was recorded by Barbra Streisand for her CD, "Higher Ground," which debuted nationally at #1. Ms. Streisand asked Ann to write lyrics to a Rolf Loveland melody, which she entitled, "I've Dreamed of You," and was sung by Streisand to James Brolin at their wedding and recorded for her CD, "A Love Like Ours." Streisand's new Christmas CD (released October 30th), includes yet another Callaway song "A Christmas Lullaby."

With performances on The Today Show, CNN, The Charlie Rose Show, The Oprah Winfrey Show, PBS, ABC News and many others, Callaway also travels the international jazz and concert circuit and is working on several songwriting projects for film and Broadway. She is branching into radio beginning this month as host of a program on the new Serious Satellite Network and is working on a national musical/variety TV show which will debut in February. Callaway is the winner of ASCAP'S "Johnny Mercer Songwriting Award," and is the only composer officially recognized as a collaborator of Cole Porter for writing lyrics to his posthumously discovered tune, "I Gaze In Your Eyes."

Callaway's recent performance at FEINSTEIN'S at the Regency Hotel (540 Park Avenue, NYC - 212-339-4095 - http://www.feinsteinsattheregency.com/) included hard-core jazz musicians Cyrus Chestnut, piano; Peter Washington, bass; and Kenny Washington, drums. Her upcoming CD, "Signature," features the signature songs of 20th century jazz legends including Sinatra, Bennett, Vaughan and Holiday, performed with pianist Kenny Barron and guest artist Wynton Marsalis.
