Bart Greenberg of cabaretscenes.org :
“The fine troubadour Tim Connell returned to Pangea for his third new show of the year. The fact that the room was packed with fans says a great deal about his talent and his warmth. Once again, he used his polished tenor and his fine enunciation plus his ability to find interesting songs that are not part of the usual cabaret catalog to build an interesting and entertaining evening.”

Gerrilyn Sohn: If Joe Allen's Walls Could Sing & Other Hidden Gems

Gerrilyn Sohn returns to Don’t Tell Mama with “If Joe Allen’s Walls Could Sing & Other Hidden Gems” on Sunday, March 12 at 4pm & Tuesday, March 21st at 7pm.
Directed by Lennie Watts, with Musical Director Steven Ray Watkins and Marco Panascia on Bass.
Joe Allen’s has been a favorite spot for theater folk and fans since 1965. On any given night you can spot some of Broadway’s brightest stars scattered throughout, but on the walls, you will find some of The Great White Way’s biggest flops. Gerrilyn Sohn will be paying tribute to some of these legendary theatrical misses. With music from “Merrily We Roll Along” and “Legs Diamond” (prominently featured on the wall) to other hidden gems from shows that should be on the wall, Gerrilyn proves that you can’t always judge a book by its cover, or a Broadway show by its critical success!

2023-03-16 19:00 - 20:30 | Chelsea Table + Stage, 152 W 26th St, New York, NY, 10001, United States
Wendy Scherl, a New York and Arizona based singer, brings her critically acclaimed show, “The Sweetness and the Sorrow: Songs of Marvin Hamlisch” to the Chelsea Table + Stage for the first time. Cabaret Scenes Magazine said “This performance showed what cabaret artistry is about.” Conceived with her two main collaborators, director Barry Kleinbort and musical director, Christopher Denny, Ms. Scherl takes a vocal joyride through the catalogue of Oscar, Tony, Emmy, Grammy and Pulitzer Prize winning composer Marvin Hamlisch, offering new takes on standards and rarities culled from his numerous Broadway shows, film scores and early pop songs.

Wendy’s far-reaching program includes classics like “The Way We Were” and “What I Did For Love” along-side little known gems like “Sweet Alibis” and “Two Boys” (which Hamlisch wrote with the late Peter Allen.) As Roy Sander of Bistro Awards wrote, “With her fluent musical vocabulary and sharp interpretive skill, Wendy Scherl illuminates and invigorates every song she sings.” This is an evening not to be missed.

“Throughout, her work was marked by a fiercely intelligent approach to lyrics coupled with an impressive clarity… She is a performer who has to perform first-rate material because anything less would be exposed with her honesty.” – Cabaret Scenes
“Corsaro has this raspy, sexy, woman’s voice in her lower register and a more legit sound on top, but it’s a voice filled with what feels like knowledge of the places she puts herself in emotionally.” – Cabaret Hotspot
Maria Corsaro recently completed a successful run of her show, You Taught My Heart To Sing, with the Gregory Toroian Trio and directed by Sue Matsuki, at Pangea. The show, which is jazz inspired, consists of songs where lyrics were added to instrumental compositions – sometimes years later. A second show with this concept is planned for Fall 2023.
