LILA DAY presents… “More of the Same”
2024-03-14 19:00 - 20:00 (America/New_York) | Pangea, 178 2nd Ave., New York, NY, United States
LILA DAY presents… “More of the Same”
Thursday, March 14 @7PM
Pangea, 178 2nd Avenue
After a successful cabaret debut, Lila Day sat down to write another, but the same stories came out. Just when you think you’ve got it all figured out, you may start to wonder, “is that all there is?” What better way to work yourself through a rut than with songs made famous by Judy Garland, Madeline Kahn, Peggy Lee, The Kinks, Billy Joel and Billie Holiday to name a few?
Directed by Kristine Zbornik (https://www.kristinezbornik.com/). Music direction by Daryl Kojak (https://www.darylkojak.com/).
“…if this was more of the same, those in the audience who didn’t see the first show probably regretted what they missed.”
“Remarkably, considering her stage presence and excellent voice modulation, Day has only been on the cabaret scene for a few years. We can only believe, in the words of Carolyn Leigh. the best is yet to come.”
-Paulanne Simmons, theaterlife.com
Lila was nominated for “Best Debut” by Broadway World’s Cabaret Awards in 2022. Said of her first show:
“The evening was a well-crafted blend of comic patter, storytelling and an impressive song list […] Day has a natural stage presence and seemed fueled by the energy of being in a room with a very responsive audience who were clearly loving her performance.”

-Aron Bederson, “ReView” for debut “Getting Happy,” cabarethotspot.com
