2023-06-18 08:00 - 17:00 (America/New_York) | Don’t Tell Mama, 343 West 46th St, New York, NY, 10036, United States
GOLDIE DVER came of age as a young woman in the late ‘60s and early ‘70s, when she began her love affair with New York City, arriving here from Philly an ambitious and talented performer. Goldie’s experience of the sweeping social change of those times shaped her values and her vision of the world.
With BRIDGES, her all new cabaret, Goldie “bridges” that time and now through the music of the ‘60s, ’70s and today. Collaborating with Musical Director MICHAEL ROBERTS and Director JAMES BEAMAN, Goldie reimagines classics made famous by The Beatles, Dusty Springfield, Carly Simon and The Carpenters, blending these with jazz standards and show tunes by the likes of Cy Coleman, Lerner and Loewe, Rupert Holmes and Marvin Hamlisch.
Special guest TANYA MOBERLY brings her stunning vocals to the show as well.
Roberts leads a dream band of top NYC players: JOHN MILLER on bass, CHIP M. FABRIZI on drums, and MARC DAINE on guitar and sax.

MOIPEI arranges their unique vocals for all the songs they sing.
At the age of 12, they were appointed Kenya’s first ever UNICEF Child Ambassadors. Through their musical talents they championed girl child empowerment, education, and alternative rites of passage. The sisters have performed sold-out concerts internationally, presenting an eclectic mix of their own arrangements of the American Songbook repertoire, Broadway tunes, jazz hits, sacred pieces, and Kenyan folk songs.
Other highlights: performances with the Indianapolis Symphony, The San Antonio Symphony, The Alamo City Opera Company, The Amarillo Opera Company, and tours of South Korea and British Columbia.

Bad Dates: A One-Man Show About Many Men
2023-08-10 19:30 - 20:30 | The Stonewall Inn, 53 Christopher Street, New York, NY, 10014, United States
Veteran comedian Adam Sank (“Last Comic Standing,” “The Today Show,” Vh-1’s “I Love the 2000s”) comes out of retirement with a new show about one gay man’s fruitless 30-year-search for lasting love. From the boyfriend who kept stealing his Neosporin to the vanilla guy with the Christmas-tree-shaped member, Adam’s dating stories are ribald and hilarious… until he turns the tables with one that is shocking and tragic.
“In that past, all my shows have been a random series of jokes, and one of the reasons I retired was because that was no longer satisfying,” Sank says. “In returning to the stage, I wanted to try something different. ‘Bad Dates’ is about a single idea, which is the fact that I’ve spent half my life hunting for men, and what the cost of that is. And while I hope people laugh at most of the show, I’m also hoping they take away something genuine and heartfelt.”
Lavender After Dark Says: “Sank’s ‘Bad Dates’ is sexy, smart, and funny. But it also has its very provocative moments… Not just hilarious but also more relevant than ever…”
Remaining Summer Performances: Thursday, Aug. 10 and Thursday, Aug. 24
$10 + 2-Drink Minimum. Ages 21 and over only. Graphic language and sensitive content. Audience discretion is advised.

Wendy Scherl in The Sweetness and The Sorrow - the Songs of Marvin Hamlisch
2023-10-05 19:00 - 20:30 | Chelsea Table + Stage, 152 W 26th St, New York, NY, 10001, United States
“This performance showed what Cabaret Artistry is all about” – Cabaret Scenes
Wendy Scherl, a New York and Arizona-based singer, returns with her critically acclaimed show, The Sweetness and the Sorrow: Songs of Marvin Hamlisch to Chelsea Table and Stage. Critics have said, “This performance showed what cabaret artistry is about” and “Scherl and Hamlisch are a good pairing. Hamlisch was such a versatile artist, and Scherl was up to the task”. Conceived with her two main collaborators, director Barry Kleinbort and musical director Christopher Denny, Ms. Scherl takes a vocal joyride through the catalog 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” alongside 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.
Wendy’s critically acclaimed debut CD, You’ll See (Harbinger Records), earned her the 2020 Manhattan Association of Cabarets (MAC) coveted LaMott/Friedman award for Recording of the Year and was named Top 10 Female Vocalist CD for 2019 by Cadence Magazine. Her most recent shows, New Scherl in Town (2017) and Town and Country (2019), earned her Broadway World and Mac award nominations for Best Vocalist.
