JODI STEVENS PREMIERES "A BROAD'S WAY" SEPTEMBER 10th
The versatile musical theatre actress Jodi Stevens makes brings her
autobiographical cabaret act "A Broad's Way" to THE METROPOLITAN ROOM
(34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440 -
http://www.metropolitanroom.com/
) for a 4-week run. Playing four consecutive Mondays, September 10th
& 17th at 7:00 pm, and September 24th & October 1st at 9:30 pm, "A
Broad's Way" is directed by Sally Mayes, with music direction by Jo
Lynn Burke and arrangements by Tex Arnold and Ron Abel. The show features
songs by the Gershwins, Porter, Andrew Lippa and Frank Wildhorn, among
others.
In "A Broad's Way," Stevens, who originated roles
out of town and on Broadway in "Urban Cowboy" and "Dracula," and
who was in the original Broadway company of "Jekyll & Hyde," revels
in the excitement of an actress/singer's peripatetic life. She also
frankly exposes some of the compulsions, relationships and obsessions
that have colored her life, from being a twin, a dyslexic stripper,
and a hard-working thespian, as well as the people, like her colorful
raunchy mother, who have set her on the coast-to-coast path to where
she finds herself today: a new mom in a committed marriage.
There is a $20 cover plus a 2-beverage minimum.
