MICHELE BROURMAN in MY FAVORITE YEAR
The Sundays In Summer Cabaret Concert Series at the Arthur Newman Theater continues on August 26th with singer/songwriter and winner of the Johnny Mercer Songwriting Award, Michele Brourman. Ms. Brourman has written numerous contemporary standards that have been recorded by Michael Feinstein, Olivia Newton-John, Cleo Laine, Margaret Whiting, Rita Coolidge, Donny Osmond, and Sheena Easton. For the cabaret-set, her songs have been recorded by and performed by some of the best in that genre including Heather MaCrae, Karen Mason, Sharon McKnight, Sally Mayes, Billy Stritch, and her frequent collaborator Amanda McBroom.
With McBroom she has co-written the songs for 16 animated features for Universal Studios, which have collectively sold millions of videos and DVD's. Most notably 10 sequels to Steven Spielberg's "The Land Before Time", "American Tail IV", "Hercules And Xena", and two sequels to Spielberg's "Balto". Music lovers may be familiar with her song "My Favorite Year", which has become a standard in the Great American Songbook.
For "My Favorite Year", Michele Brourman will be joined by singer Pat Whiteman, who some will remember as an audience favorite from last season at the Newman. Naturally, Michele will take on the accompanist duties since they are her songs after all, but she does sing and we'll be hearing her as well as Pat. The show begins at 2 PM on Sunday, August 26th at the Arthur Newman Theater located in the Joslyn Center in Palm Desert. Local performer and producer Les Michaels is presenting the Sundays In Summer Series that will run through October 28 with a new show each Sunday. The box office opens at 1 PM and tickets are $10 cash at the box office or through Brown Paper Tickets. For more information call 760-325-2731.
