************************************

Donna O'Riordan is thrilled to make her cabaret debut in her hometown of St. Louis. She is a life-long singer from as far back as she can remember, with fond memories of singing with the St. Louis County Community Chorus, church choir, and many cabaret workshops and showcase events in St. Louis and Chicago. She is grateful to have worked with inspirational performers and teachers such as Lina Koutrakos, Rick Jensen, Beckie Menzie, Amanda McBroom, Merry Keller, and Carol Schmidt.

Rick Jensen is certainly no stranger to the St. Louis cabaret scene. The multi-talented singer, songwriter, director, and producer served as music director for many local cabaret performers and has starred in several sold-out solo performances in town. Rick's compositions have become standards on the New York City Club circuit, garnering him critical praise and earning him six Manhattan Association of Cabaret and Clubs MAC Awards including "Tonight, New York City: The Rick Jensen Songbook," written, musical directed, and hosted by Rick Jensen, directed by Lina Koutrakos at the Metropolitan Room in New York (2012).
