BROADWAY WOMEN
FEATURING JOAN CURTO
Sunday, March 22, 2 p.m. and 5:30 p.m.
Called a “cabaret icon” by NBC News and “an artist with clout” from the Huffington Post, Joan Curto
highlights the women who wrote songs for Broadway as well as the women who made them famous on
stage. Features songs from classic shows: Mame, Hello Dolly, Chicago and Funny Girl, and new sure-to-
be-classics from Broadway hits Beautiful and Waitress, and more. Having appeared on the stage in over
40 musicals, Curto will weave her often witty personal connection to the songs and the shows throughout.
Sunday, May 17, 2 p.m. and 5:30 p.m.
David Edelfelt brings us the best of the last 100 years of
songs from leading men of the Great White Way. Taking
us from Kern and Porter, Rodgers and Hammerstein, and
Lerner and Loewe, through Maltby and Shire and Stephen
Sondheim, he will have you smiling and humming along to
some of the most beloved melodies to grace the Broadway
stage. Come to hear old favorites and newer gems sung
by this exciting and versatile artist.
“A consummate song interpreter who probably
sounds great singing the weather forecast… his plush
bass-baritone commands attention in any repertoire…
one of Chicago’s best”
