| The Cast of Kritzerland at the Gardenia: The Kander and Ebb Album |
Our July “Kritzerland at the Gardenia” is another exciting evening devoted to the brilliant songs of John Kander and Fred Ebb. Over the years, Bruce Kimmel has produced CDs containing many Kander and Ebb songs, including an entire album devoted to their music and lyrics, Brent Barrett’s “The Kander and Ebb Album,” as well as two instrumental presentations of their shows, Chicago and Cabaret, with the Brad Ellis Little Big Band. Kander and Ebb have written some of the greatest theater songs ever, from shows such as Flora, The Red Menace; Cabaret; The Happy Time; Zorba; 70 Girls 70; Chicago; Woman Of The Year; and many others, including the recent The Scottsboro Boys, which received a Tony nomination for Best Score. We’ve assembled our usual stellar group of singers, and it’s a treat to have as our special guest, Gregory Harrison, who starred in Kander and Ebb’s Steel Pier, and has played Billy Flynn in Chicago more than 1000 times on the road and on Broadway. Our musical director is the great John Boswell.
So, join us for an incredibly tuneful evening filled with Kander and Ebb classics as well as some of their more obscure material.
