New York City
Back by popular demand, cabaret star Mary Cleere Haran returns to the Oak Room at the Algonquin, New York’s most glamorous nightspot. Accompanied by musical director Don Rebic on piano and Chip Jackson on bass, Mary will sing songs that defined the ’40s in film, among them “That Old Black Magic,” “Long Ago and Far Away,” “But Beautiful,” “Put the Blame on Mame,” “The Boy Next Door,” “Out of This World” and “Moonlight Becomes You.” Segments of the show will pay tribute to Bing Crosby on the occasion of his centenary, the film “Mrs. Miniver,” Winston Churchill, Ernst Lubich, Frank Loesser, Judy Garland, Rita Hayworth, and Johnny Mercer, the poet Laurette of 1940s movie songs.
