WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

Jazz/cabaret sensation Milla Ilieva (whose Broadway Unplugged performance last fall was called "sublimely shimmering" by Variety) barrels back to New York cabaret with a brand new show about all the men in her life -- all of them! So Many Nights, So Many Men is a style-spanning romantic romp that mixes Broadway ballads, obscure comic gems, rediscovered theatre cult favorites and American popular songbook chestnuts. Featuring musical director Paul Trueblood on piano, and directed by Margery Beddow.

A multifaceted vocalist, Milla -- who trained at the Peabody Conservatory, The Juilliard School in its Professional Studies Program, and the Académie Ravel in France -- is as comfortable performing standards as she is singing opera and country western. In So Many Nights, So Many Men Milla lampoons her apparently insatiable appetite for love (she's been engaged five times!) as she jumps from songs by composers as varied as Rimsky-Korsakov, Vernon Duke, Jule Styne, Ray Jessel, Harold Arlen, Sondheim, Kander & Ebb, Jacques Urbont, Lionel Bart, and Arthur Schwartz. Throughout the show Milla parses out deliciously quirky advice and down-homeisms as she attempts to fathom for us her vast romanticism. Singing of love's heartbreak, loss, excess, quixotic optimism, and out-and-out-decadence, she wraps the whole affair in dazzling packages that show off both her vocal mastery, emotional range and urbane wit. Among the show's juicier musical morsels are songs from the cult classics "All in Love," "Lock Up Your Daughters," and "The Act."
